Lyrics Won't Cry on Christmas - Charles Esten

It's a cold December evening
I'm setting up the tree
Doing all those Christmas things you do
Crosby sings out "Merry
And bright it all should be"
But the sun's already gone
And so are you

You'd best believe
I'll be a mess home Christmas Eve

But I won't cry on Christmas
No, I won't give in
To all the tears that try to fall
Like the snow out in the wind
It's the coldest winter
It's ever been
And I wish I didn't know what I was missing
Here below the mistletoe without your kissing
But I won't cry on Christmas

I used to take that silver angel
I'd put 'er up on top
You'd clap, we'd stand back
And just hold hands
And then I'd say "I love you"
And you'd say "Never stop"
And now I'm here just praying that I can't

It's hard to fight
This silent night

But I won't cry on Christmas
No, I won't give in
To all the tears that try to fall
Like the snow out in the wind
It's the coldest winter
It's ever been
And I wish I didn't know what I was missing
Here below the mistletoe without your kissing
But I won't cry on Christmas
No, I won't cry on Christmas
