Glee Cast Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's just one thing I need
I don't care about presents
Underneath the christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for christmas
Is you
I don't want a lot for christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about presents
Underneath the christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa claus won't make me happy
With a toy on christmas day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for christmas is you
You baby
I won't ask for much this christmas
I don't even wish for snow
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won't make a list and send it
To the north pole for saint nick
I won't even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeers click
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do
Baby all I want for christmas is you
You
All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children's
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need
Won't you please bring my baby to me
Oh I don't want a lot for christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door
Oh I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for christmas is
You
All I want for christmas is you baby
The Glee Cast’s version of Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” starts with the singer stating that she doesn't want a lot for Christmas except for one thing, and that is the person she loves. All the presents, the Christmas tree, and stockings hung do not matter to her as long as she has her significant other. She yearns for them to be hers and wants her wish to come true. The singer doesn't need snow or a list sent to the North Pole, as long as she can be under the mistletoe with her loved one. All she desires for is to hold her lover tight as they wait for Santa Claus.
The song emphasizes the importance of love and companionship over material objects on Christmas. The focus should be on being with loved ones and cherishing their presence. Throughout the song, the singer expresses the joy and anticipation for her lover to be reunited with her. The song has a festive feel with upbeat rhythms and sounds of jingling bells.

I don't want a lot for christmas
I am not asking for a lot this Christmas
There's just one thing I need
I want only one thing in particular
I don't care about presents
Gifts are not necessary for me
Underneath the Christmas tree
Surrounded by all the decorations
I don't need to hang my stocking
Stocking is not important to me
There upon the fireplace
It can stay empty on the mantel
Santa Claus won't make me happy
I will not be satisfied only by receiving gifts from Santa
With a toy on Christmas day
Even if I get a toy on Christmas morning
I just want you for my own
I want you to be with me
More than you could ever know
The depth of my desire for you is beyond your imagination
Make my wish come true
Please fulfill my wish
All I want for Christmas is you
You are the only thing I want for Christmas
I won't ask for much this Christmas
I am not going to demand a lot this Christmas
I don't even wish for snow
I don’t wish for snowy weather
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
I will wait patiently
Underneath the mistletoe
Beneath the hanging mistletoe
I won't make a list and send it
I won't create a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't send it off to Santa
I won't even stay awake to hear those magic reindeers click
I won't stay up late, waiting to hear the sound of reindeer hooves on the rooftop
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Because I want you to be with me tonight
Holding on to me so tight
Embracing me strongly
What more can I do
There's nothing more I can do
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
My only desire is to have you
All the lights are shining
The festive lights are glowing
So brightly everywhere
In every direction they are shining brightly
And the sound of children's laughter fills the air
The sound of children's joyous laughter can be heard all around
And everyone is singing
Everyone around me is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
I can hear the sound of sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need
Santa, please bring me what I really need
Won't you please bring my baby to me
I am requesting that you bring my beloved to me
Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
I don't have many desires for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
What I am asking for is very limited
I just want to see my baby
The only thing I want is to see my loved one
Standing right outside my door
I want to see them right outside my door
You are the only thing I want for Christmas
My desire is just to be with you

Won't you please bring my baby to me quickly
I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just wanna see my baby
Standing right outside my door
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
