Just Me This Year

December 18th and ain't he sweet?

He called me names, and called it quits
Considering the season, I've got reason to be sad
But considering the man, I'm glad

Ring the bells, and hang the mistletoe

Find the carols on the radio
Play 'em loud and now he can't say no
I'm feelin' free 'cause it's just me this year

Take the train to town and see the tree

Get some shopping done, but just for me
He told me diamonds are a luxury
So I'll take three, 'cause it's just me this year

I'm keeping plenty warm without him

Never doubt it
There's so much left to burn

Asked the postman in the other snow

That's my plumber playin' piano
My French tutor made a chocolate chaud, qui vit ici
Oh, it's just me this year

The greatest gift I could receive

You won't believe it
Was just for him to leave

A toboggan ride on dead man's curve

That old chicken never had the nerve
Finally, all the thrills that I deserve
And possibly, eventually, I'll find another dear
But it's just me this year
