Lyrics
"One Wish For Christmas"
I have one wish for Christmas,
just one gift I want by the tree.
There is one thing on my short list,
............ to have you here at home with me.
While you are far away, I'm counting down the days,
waiting for sleigh bells in the snow.
We won't be needing sugar plums, candy canes, or anyone
We'll just need some Mistletoe.
I have one wish for Christmas,
that can't be too much to ask.
Just to feel the warmth of your kiss,
would fill my wish list at last!
So Santa, before you dash on your shiny sled,
Ol' Saint Nick, I hope you've read
my lonely letter with one single line.
Please make my wish come true, so by the time next year is new,
she'll be in my arms singing Auld Lang Syne.
One wish for Christmas,
when all the chimney tops turn white,
you will be here for Christmas,
and that's all we'll need....... for the rest of our lives.
You're my Angel.
