All I Want For Christmas Is You
Patrick Droney Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

I don′t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
And I don't care about the 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

'Cause 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 won′t ask for much this Christmas
I won′t even wish for snow
I just wanna 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 darlin'
Hear those magic reindeer click, yeah

′Cause I just want you here tonight
Holdin' on to me so tight
What more can I do?
Baby, all I want for Christmas is you

All the lights are shinin′ 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?

Honey, 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

′Cause I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Honey, all I want for Christmas is you

All I want for Christmas
