"Tell Me" lyrics

"Tell Me"
(from "Scrooge: A Christmas Carol" soundtrack)

Every year, the same reminders of the things I've lost
Absent friends and broken pledges wrapped in freezing frost
Why should I be bright and merry?
Why should I, won't someone tell me?
Tell me, tell me, tell me

Cold bleak winters filled with sorrow are all I've ever known
Seasons greetings you can keep them
Just leave me alone
"Why not join us, toast the season?"
Don't they know I have my reasons?
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me

Every year such joy and gladness
Sparkling in their eyes
Treat them tougher, make them suffer
Bring them down to size
All around me, oh so cheery
I'm not happy so why should they be?
Tell me, tell me
Tell me

Ebenezer Scrooge
Ebenezer Scrooge
Ebenezer Scrooge
Ebenezer Scrooge
Ebenezer Scrooge
Ebenezer Scrooge
