Here it is Christmas day, and you're many miles away,
And I wonder if you feel the way I do;
In the air there's happiness, but for me there's loneliness,
For all I want for Christmas, Dear, is you.
Presents wrapped in green and gold have no arms for me to hold,
No lips to whisper softly, I love you;
Oh, how happy I would be to find you underneath my tree,
For all I want for Christmas, Dear, is you.
Presents wrapped in green and gold have no arms for me to hold,
No lips to whisper softly, I love you;
Oh, how happy I would be to find you underneath my tree,
For all I want for Christmas, Dear, is you.
All want for Christmas, Dear, is you.
