All I Want for Christmas Is You
Bom and Hi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 in 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

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Bom and Hi's song All I Want For Christmas Is You describe the loneliness and longing one can feel when separated from their loved one during the Christmas holiday. The singer begins by acknowledging that it is Christmas Day and they are far away from their significant other. They express their wonder if their loved one feels the same way they do. Although the air is filled with happiness, the singer can only feel the loneliness within themselves. This loneliness is due to the absence of their loved one, who seems to be the only thing they truly want for Christmas.


The second verse describes how presents wrapped in green and gold, symbolic of the traditional colors of Christmas, have no comfort to offer the singer. They cannot hold them, whisper "I love you" or bring happiness like their loved one could. The singer then sets a heartfelt wish to find their loved one underneath their Christmas tree, which would bring them the ultimate joy. Thus, the song is conveying the sentiment that Christmas is not about the material things and superficial celebrations, but, for the singer, the holiday is about being with their significant other - the person they truly want for Christmas.


Line by Line Meaning

Here it is Christmas Day and you're many miles away
Today is Christmas, and you are far away from me


And I wonder if you feel the way I do
I am curious if you feel the same way as I do


In the air there's happiness but in me there's loneliness
Everyone around me is happy, but I am feeling lonely


For all I want for Christmas dear is you
All I want for Christmas is to be with you


Presents wrapped in green and gold have no arms for me to Hold
Gifts wrapped in beautiful paper do not give me warmth


No lips to whisper softly I love you
I miss the feeling of you whispering 'I love you'


Oh how happy I would be to find you underneath my tree
I would be overjoyed if I found you waiting for me under my tree


For all I want for Christmas dear is you
All I want for Christmas is to be with you
