Lyrics[]
[Chorus]
Don't you know that Christmas would be incomplete
If you're not here with me
Sugar plums ain't half as sweet as you
Someone go tell Santa I don't need no gifts
Got nothing on my list
Don't you know my only wish
Is to hold you on the 25th
[Verse 1]
Season's here, lights appear
Spread the cheer everywhere
What a year it has been
Got me dreamin'
Oh, the place where we're safe
From the cold, your embrace
Oh, I just can't wait
To be home again
[Pre-Chorus]
Catch the midnight flight
No more silent nights
I'll be by your side, oh
[Chorus]
Don't you know that Christmas would be incomplеte
If you're not herе with me
Sugar plums ain't half as sweet as you
Someone go tell Santa I don't need no gifts
Got nothing on my list
Don't you know my only wish
Is to hold you on the 25th
[Post-Chorus]
(Fa-la-la-la-la) No
(Fa-la-la-la-la) Oh
Yeah, yeah (Hold you on the 25th)
[Verse 2]
Fancy bags, Cadillacs
None of that, keep the tags
I can do without
I just want one thing
Fireside burnin' bright
Mistletoe hangin' high
My only desire
If you're listening
[Pre-Chorus]
Catch the midnight flight
No more silent nights
It's been the longest time, oh yeah
[Chorus]
Don't you know that Christmas would be incomplete
If you're not here with me
Sugar plums ain't half as sweet as you
Someone go tell Santa I don't need no gifts
Got nothing on my list
Don't you know my only wish
Is to hold you on the 25th
[Post-Chorus]
(Fa-la-la-la-la) Oh
(Fa-la-la-la-la) No, no, no
I just wanna hold you on the 25th
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Pre-Chorus]
So catch the midnight flight
No more silent nights
I'll be by your side
[Chorus]
Don't you know that Christmas would be incomplete (Oh yeah)
If you're not here with me (If you're not here with me, baby)
Sugar plums ain't half as sweet as you
Someone go tell Santa I don't need no gifts (Tell him I don't need no gifts)
Got nothing on my list (Oh)
Don't you know my only wish (My only wish)
Is to hold you on the 25th (I just wanna hold you, baby)
[Outro]
I just wanna hold you, baby
(Fa-la-la-la-la) Oh
(Fa-la-la-la-la) I just wanna hold you, baby, yeah, hey
(Hold you on the 25th)
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do
(Fa-la-la-la-la) So get over here, babe
(Fa-la-la-la-la) Oh, yeah
