James Arthur Christmas Bells Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Daylight is fadin', turn on the lights
I'm drinkin' daily into the night
The radio's playin' that old song by Slade
So I sit here blazin', memories we made
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm

[Chorus]
When the Christmas bells ring out, they don't sound
Like they did every year you were here
When the mistletoe comes 'round, we don't kiss
Like we did all the years you were here
Mm, mm-hmm, mm-mm, mm-hmm, mm-mm, mm, mm-hmm

[Verse 2]
Everyone's prayin' this year it's white
The radio's playin' thе same old tune
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm

[Chorus]
When thе Christmas bells ring out, they don't sound
Like they did every year you were here
When the mistletoe comes 'round, we don't kiss
Like we did all the years you were here

[Verse 3 / Bridge]
Snow filled globe, all around
On the day that you left town
Children sing in the streets
Songs you used to sing to me
Close my eyes until December ends
And all of the whiskey has been drank
All the wrappin' paper has been torn Just like my heart when you left home
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm
[Chorus]
When the Christmas bells ring out (The bells ring out), they don't sound
Like they did every year you were here (Mm-hmm, mm-hmm)
When the mistletoe comes 'round (When it comes 'round), we don't kiss
Like we did all the years you were here (Mm-hmm, mm-hmm)
When the Christmas bells ring out (The bells ring out), they don't sound
Like they did every year you were there (Mm-hmm, mm-hmm)
When the mistletoe comes 'round (When it comes 'round), we don't kiss
Like we did every year you were here (Mm-hmm, mm-hmm)
When the Christmas bells ring out (The bells ring out), they don't sound
Like they did every year you were here (Mm-hmm, mm-hmm)
When the mistletoe comes 'round (When it comes 'round), we don't kiss
Like we did all the years you were here (Mm-hmm, mm-hmm)

[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
