(Alan Jackson)



Today I took some paper from the closet

And wrapped the wedding ring

You left behind

And I addressed it to the man

Who vowed to love you

And on the little card

I wrote these words inside



Merry Christmas to me

Just one gift beneath my tree

For the fool who let you leave

Merry Christmas to me



Then I sat down in my chair

And thought about you

About the many reasons why you're gone

And I opened up the present that I gave to me

And realized how much it hurts to be alone



Merry Christmas to me

Just one gift beneath my tree

For the fool who let you leave

Merry Christmas to me
