Lyrics
If I could have one Christmas wish this year
It wouldn't be for money or even Christmas cheer
If I could have one Christmas wish this year
It'd be to wake on that morning without all these tears
It hits me hard inside
That all I'd ever want
Is just one more Christmas card
That says, "Love Mom'
I just wish
One more
Moment in time
To see you smile
Unwrapping my gifts
Finding what's inside
If I could have one Christmas wish this year
It wouldn't be for holiday spirits, wine or beer
If I could have one Christmas wish this year
It'd be to spend it with the one who
Took away my childhood fears
It hits me hard inside
Cause all I'd ever want
Is just one more Christmas Card
That says, "Love your mom"
As I sit and watch my Christmas tree
With lights
I think of how your face would beam
On Christmas eve night
