Why So Blue

Christmas is supposed to be joyous
But my feelings inside are dead
My heart heavy like lead
I’m holding on just...by a thread

I wish my smiles were real
Meaningful, sincere and true
I wish I could get a clue
Why inside I am so blue.

My dearest friend, If only you knew -- How it breaks my heart to see you so blue -- To cheer you up just what would I do -- Why, I'd play you a tune on my didgeridoo. ........ 'ow's that maite..... Jake
