JULY Challenge-Blue Christmas

Happy July!

This year, our theme is Songs of Christmas.

The seventh song is
Blue Christmas

Be inspired by the song theme, a line, a phrase or a word!

Here are the words.

~~~~~
I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't be the same dear, if you're not here with me
And when those blue snowflakes start falling
That's when those blue memories start calling
You'll be doing all right
With your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas
You'll be doing alright
With your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas
You'll be doing all right
With your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas
~~~~~
