Sad Christmas Clown Lyrics

The snow is falling down
And Christmas is coming round
All the children count down the days
Until Saint Nick hops on his sleigh

But this year I paint my face
With tears perfectly placed
Under eyes bloodshot and dazed
Because you packed up and went away

I'm a sad Christmas Clown
Now that you're not around
All my holiday cheer
Has gone up in smoke
Now I crack the bottle
I wail and I moan
A sad Christmas Clown left here alone

When I was a child
Without a care in the world
I never would have dreamed that I'd find a girl
Who'd rip out my heart
And tear me apart
Cutting me down to the bone
Turning my love into stone

I'm a sad Christmas Clown
Now that you're not around
All my holiday cheer
Has gone up in smoke
Now I crack the bottle
I wail and I moan
A sad Christmas Clown left here alone
