I hope you had a lovely year

I hope you laughed a lot

I hope your cup ran over with the blessings that you got

But if you're like the rest of us and this year gave you squat

Let's raise a glass and still say "Cheers!"

To Christmas next year

I hope you conquered all your fears

I hope you drank with friends

I hope you made some new mistakes to learn from once again

But if you want to forget everything this year has been

Let's raise a glass and still say "Cheers!"

To Christmas next year

If sugar plums don't seem to dance between your ears

And a Christmas carol is the last thing that you want to hear

If you're sick of all the holly jolly yuletide that appears

And each silver lane or candy cane will find you steering clear

If the sight of mistletoe brings you to tears

And you can't wait for it all to disappear

Let's raise a glass and still say "Cheers!"

To Christmas next year
