Christmas future is far away
Christmas past is past
Christmas present is here today
Bringing joy that may lastHave yourself a merry little Christmas
May your heart be light
In a year our troubles will be out of sight
From now onHave yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the yuletide gay
In a year our troubles will be miles awayHere we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Precious friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more
I know that
In a year we all will be together
If the Fates allow
Until then, we'll just have to muddle through somehow
And have ourselves a merry little Christmas now.
