    Saddest Christmas song for you?

    What was the saddest Christmas song for you? For me it's that song Christmas Shoes that was made into a TV movie with Rob Lowe.

    Unhappy

    I like the thread.

    Well, for me, there are 2 songs actually, that make me feel sad.
    The 1st one is A Soldiers Christmas letter.

    This time of year, it hurts the most
    Daddy's not at home, I wish I could be back
    She takes comfort, from a letter he wrote
    She keeps them close, and she cries alone


    On Christmas eve, as you go to sleep
    I'll be missing you
    Sending you, my love, my letter reads


    A Christmas time, it hurts the most
    One day you'll understand
    (One day you'll understand)
    I'm gone but not forgotten


    On Christmas eve, as you go to sleep
    I'll be missing you (I'll be missing you)
    Sending you my love, My letter reads


    My love will go on, my wirds come from afar
    I'll be missing you, I'll be holding you


    This time of year, it hurts the most
    and Daddy's not at home
    He'll be missing you, he'll be missing you
    And on Christmas day, when you awake
    I'll be missing you
    Sending al my love, my letter reads

    Third Day - Merry Christmas

    There's a little girl trembling on a cold December morn
    Crying for momma's arms
    At an orphanage just outside a little China town
    There the forgotten are


    But half a world away I hang the stockings by the fire
    And dream about the day when I can finally call you mine


    It's Christmas time again but you're not home
    Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone
    And so tonight I pray that God will come and hold you in his arms
    And tell you from my heart I wish you Merry Christmas


    As I hang the tinsel on the tree and watch the twinkling lights
    I'm warmed by the fire's glow
    Outside the children tumble in a wonderland of white,
    Make angels in the snow


    But half a world away you try your best to fight the tears
    And hope that heaven's angels come to carry you here


    It's Christmas time again but you're not home
    Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone
    And so tonight I pray that God will come and hold you in his arms
    And tell you from my heart I wish you Merry Christmas


    Christmas is a time to celebrate the holy child
    And we celebrate his perfect gift of love
    He came to earth to give his life
    And prepare a place for us
    So we could have a home with him above


    It's Christmas time again and now you're home
    Your family is here so you will never be alone
    So tonight before you go to sleep, I'll hold you in my arms
    And I'll tell you from my heart, and I'll you from my heart
    I wish you Merry Christmas

    'Lonely This Christmas' by Mud and 'Blue Christmas' by Elvis.
    So let the raucous sleigh bells jingle,
    Hail our dear old friend kris kringle,
    Driving his reindeer across the sky.
    Don't stand underneath when they fly by.

    I agree with "The Christmas Shoes". I just watched the movie again last week and cried through the entire thing!

    Even if I do not like the film (The Christmas Shoes) at all, whenever I listen to the song on radio stations, I always burst into tears.

    I saw that movie for the first time last Christmas on the Lifetime channel. I thought it was good but sad as too, and the song goes well with the movie. Another song that I think is sad is "Merry Christmas Darling" by Karen Carpenter.I'm sure you can search and find it on Youtube She sang it beautifully but you can also hear the sadness in her voice.

    I agree. I feel exactly the same whenever I listen to ''Merry Christmas darling'' by K. Carpenter.

    Karen Carpenter had a beautiful voice. Always very emotional!
