have yourself a merry little Christmas
let your heart be light
next year all our troubles will be out of sight

have yourself a merry little Christmas
make the Yule-tide gay
next year all our troubles will be miles away

once again, as in olden days
happy golden days of yore
faithful friends who are dear to us
will be near to us
once more

have yourself a merry little Christmas
let your heart be light
next year all our troubles will be out of sight

someday soon
we all will be together
if the fates allow
hang a shining star upon the highest bough
so have yourself a merry little Christmas now…
