I was makin my list

I was checkin it twice

In the middle of this, I got tears in my eyes

For in my foolish heart, there was one simple truth

The only gift I wanted was you

I was trimming the tree

I was stringing the lights

While the radio played "Silent Night"

There were presents you sent

Though there were quite a few

The only gift I wanted was you



Chorus:

You need to be home with me

Alone with me

Holding me next to the Christmas tree

Kissing under the mistletoe

As candles glow

Please come home soon

It's not the same without you



As the bitter-sweet night had come to an end

I was saying goodbye to our family and friends

And they all wished me well

And I knew that I knew

The only gift I wanted was you



Chorus



Deck the halls with boughs of holly

Fa la la la la la la

Ohhhhh, Ohhhhh

The only gift I wanted was you



Chorus



I was makin my list

I was checkin it twice

In the middle of this, I got tears in my eyes

For in my wishful heart, there was one simple truth

The only gift I wanted was you

For in my wishful heart, there was one simple truth

The only gift I wanted was you
