Hasn't every little Christmas wish been sent?
Have sugar plums been dancing in your head?
I hope the holiday will find you well
Oh, Noel, oh, Noel

I met you in December '93
Noel been staying up the block with her mother's family
For two straight weeks, we ran through snow
And kissed beneath the mistletoe
And swore love in secret company

Hasn't every little Christmas card been sent?
Has every child been tucked into their bed?
I'm hoping that this song will find you well
Oh, Noel, oh, Noel

A decade passed and letters all but died
Ten years that saw her folks divorced
And best friend's suicide
I'd see her on occasion looking pale and petrified
I'd wave but she would only turn and cry

The embers in the fireplace are dead
The late-night news reports are being read
They found you in some dirty cheap motel
But oh well, oh well

Noel, Noel, Noel
