The Man in Red

We never kiss under the mistletoe That’s the way that she let me know I should have listened when she said That she was leaving with the man in red When I look under the Christmas tree None of the presents are wrapped for me I’m so ashamed I just hang my head I know she’s leaving with the man in red All the shining Christmas lights Seem so joyful tonight You should’ve seen my face When I found her stockings by the fireplace There’ll be no dinner, no holiday All because my baby went away She made me feel just like I was dead The night she left me for the man in red There’ll be no caroling tonight No hot chocolate by the fireside Things like puzzles and toys Are only meant for little girls and boys For me there’s only my loneliness All I can say is that I tried my best Can’t understand what went through her head When she left me for the man in red I should have listened when she said That she was leaving with the man in red
