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

All I Want For Christmas Composer(s): Ronnie Rogers Performer(s): Toby Keith
You could shop until you drop At every mall in town Searching for that special gift for me Cowboy boots, a hunting suit That would be just fine But you can't buy the biggest wish of mine
Honey, all I want for Christmas Is a new year with you Twelve more months of loving A heart so sweet and true Make me a promise That's the best that you can do All I want for Christmas Is a new year with you
I could make a list of my requests And send them to Santa Claus Tell him what a good man I've been He could land up on our rooftop Bring it all on Christmas eve But you've still got the greatest gift for me
Honey, all I want for Christmas Is a new year with you Twelve more months of loving A heart so sweet and true Make me a promise That's the best that you can do All I want for Christmas Is a new year with you
I could be so happy Holding you by firelight Listening to you whisper I'm yours for life
Honey, all I want for Christmas Is a new year with you Twelve more months of loving A heart so sweet and true Make me a promise That's the best that you can do All I want for Christmas Is a new year with you
Honey, all I want for Christmas Is a new year with you
I'm Wearing My Heart Away From You Composer(s): Charles K. Harris
I wonder where you are tonight, my love As all alone I sit and dream I wonder if your heart's with me tonight And if the same stars for you gleam I sometimes fear there is another love Some fairer face has won your heart But Ah, I hope the day will never come The day that we two must live apart
The bees are droning in the wild wood, love The flowers their tiny heads bow low The birds are singing soft and plaintively They miss your dear kind face I know From o'er the meadow comes a faint perfume It whispers gently, "Love you're true" But Oh, my darling, if you only knew I'm wearing my heart away for you
I'm wearing my heart away for you It cries aloud, "My love be true" I dream of you by night, I long for you by day I'm wearing my heart away for you
All Alone On Christmas
Composer(s): Steven Van Zandt
Performer(s): Darlene Love
and multiple other artists
The cold wind is blowin' and the streets are getting dark I'm writing you a letter and I don't know where to start The bells will be ringing Saint John the Divine I get a little lonely every year around this time
The music plays all night in Little Italy The lights will be going up on old Rockefella's tree People window shopping on Fifth Avenue All I want for Christmas is you
(Tell me) I've got to know Where do lonely hearts go Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
Things are different since you've been here last Childhood dreaming is a thing of the past Maybe you can bring us some hope this year Visions of sugar plums have disappeared
Do you remember sleigh riding in the snow And dancing all night to "Baby, Please Come Home" Today's celebration is bittersweet There's mothers and children in the street
(Tell me) I've got to know Where do lonely hearts go Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
I'm all grown up but I'm the same you'll see I'm writing this letter 'cause I still believe Dear Santa I've been good this year Can't you stay a little while with me right here
(Tell me) I've got to know Where do lonely hearts go Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
I'm Walking Behind You Composer(s): Billy Reid Performer(s): Eddie Fisher and multiple other artists
I'm walking behind you, on your wedding day And I'll hear you promise, to love and obey Though you may forget me, you're still on my mind Look over your shoulder, I'm walking behind
Maybe I'll kiss again, with a love that's new But I shall wish again, I were kissing you 'Cause I'll always love you, wherever you go And though we are parted, I want you to know That if things go wrong dear, and fate is unkind Look over your shoulder, I'm walking behind
If things should go wrong dear, and fate is unkind Look over your shoulder, I'm walking behind
Es blaut die Nacht Die Sternlein blinken Schneeflöcklein leise niedersinken Auf Edeltännleins grünem Wipfel häuft sich ein kleiner weißer Zipfel Und dort, vom Fenster her durchbricht den dunklen Tann' ein warmes Licht Im Forsthaus kniet bei Kerzenschimmer die Försterin im Herrenzimmer In dieser wunderschönen Nacht hat sie den Förster umgebracht Er war ihr bei der Heimespflege seit langer Zeit schon sehr im Wege So kam sie mit sich überein Am Nicklausabend muß es sein Und als das Rehlein ging zur Ruh' das Häslein tat die Augen zu Erlegte sie - direkt von vorn' - den Gatten über Kimm' und Korn Vom Knall geweckt rümpft nur der Hase zwei-, drei-, viermal die Schnuppernase Und ruhet weiter süß im Dunkeln Derweil die Sternlein traulich funkeln Und in der guten Stube drinnen da läuft des Försters Blut von hinnen Nun muß die Försterin sich eilen den Gatten sauber zu zerteilen Schnell hat sie bis auf die Knochen nach Waidmanns Sitte aufgebrochen Voll Sorgfalt legt sie Glied auf Glied - was der Gemahl bisher vermied - Behält ein Teil Filet zurück als festtägliches Bratenstück Und packt zum Schluß - es geht auf vier - die Reste in Geschenkpapier Da dröhnt's von fern wie Silberschellen Im Dorfe hört man Hunde bellen Wer ist's, der in so tiefer Nacht im Schnee noch seine Runde macht? Knecht Ruprecht kommt mit goldenem Schlitten auf einem Hirsch herangeritten! "Heh, gute Frau, habt ihr noch Sachen die armen Menschen Freude machen?" Des Försters Haus ist tief verschneit doch seine Frau steht schon bereit "Die sechs Pakete, heil'ger Mann 's ist alles, was ich geben kann!" Die Silberschellen klingen leise Knecht Ruprecht macht sich auf die Reise Im Försterhaus die Kerze brennt Ein Sternlein blinkt Es ist Advent
