I've had a fir burning since the holidays began I Hear it's cold out where you're living, but it ain't colder than I've been
I've been an animal since you've left me I need you wrapped under my tree
My Christmas cheer is here and ready, but where are you to set it free?
I sit alone by the fire inside our home
Outside the snow is falling and I'm singing

Wish as I may, Wish as I might
Grant me this one small wish on Christmas night
Cause I don't need candy, or the toys from my youth
I just want you, oh darlin' I just want you

I've had a candle burning, hoping you'll come back to me
I think this may be more than anything Mr Santa Clause can bring
I was adorable when you left I; m on the naughty list this year
A lump of coal won't do it justice, it's all the loneliness I fear

I sit alone by the gifts in our own home
You're not a single one and now I'm singing

Wish as I may, wish as I might
Grant me this one small wish on Christmas night
Cause I don't need candy, or the toys from my youth
I just want you, oh darlin' I just want you

I'm not the Grinch
I'm not Mr Scrooge
My heart just needs your light

The only thing I'm doing is crying in my room, and singing
I wish my baby would be here with me tonight
Oh oo oh oo oh oo oh
Oh I've been so lonely

Wish as I may, wish as I might
Grant me this one small wish on Christmas night
Cause I don't need candy, or the toys from my youth
I just want you, oh darlin' I just want you
OH oh oh I just want you, oh darlin' I just want you
Oh oo oh I just want you oh darlin I just want you
