merry christmas to the one i used to know

Kelly Clarkson

If I could feel a memory instead of turn back time
I know the past is all that s left of you and I
I d relive when we first met
When you caught my eye
The rush of us and all that was right now would be so nice

But I know when Christmas comes around
And the snow falls like a fresh start on the ground
You aren t the one I m missing
He left long ago
But Christmas Eve, my gift to me is
Dancing with your ghost, so merry Christmas
To the one I used to know

If everything was like a dream, you d be by my side
And who I thought you were was true, not made up in my mind
You d be here in my arms
Where I thought you d be tonight
Instead of me, left wondering, was everything a lie?

But I know when Christmas comes around
And the snow falls like a fresh start on the ground
You aren t the one I m missing
He left long ago
But Christmas Eve, my gift to me is
Dancing with your ghost, so merry Christmas
To the one I used to know
Once a year, I let my heart go back to you and me
A secret gift to myself
On Christmas Eve
If I could feel a memory instead of turn back time
I know that the past is all that s left of you and I

Still I know when Christmas comes around
And the snow falls like a fresh start on the ground
You aren t the one I m missing
No, he left long ago
But Christmas Eve, my gift to me is
Dancing with your ghost, so merry Christmas
To the one I used to know
So merry Christmas
To the one I used to know
