Lyrics

[Intro]

I don't want a lot for Christmas

There is just one thing I need

I don't care about the presents

Underneath the Christmas tree

I just want you for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true

All I want for Christmas is you, yeah

[Verse 1]

I don't want a lot for Christmas

There is just one thing I need

(And I) Don't care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree

I don't need to hang my stocking

There upon the fireplace

Santa Claus won't make me happy

With a toy on Christmas Day

[Chorus]

I just want you for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true

All I want for Christmas is you

You, baby

[Verse 2]

Oh, I won't ask for much this Christmas

I won't even wish for snow

(And I) I'm just gonna keep on waiting underneath the mistletoe

I won't make a list and send it

To the North Pole for Saint Nick

I won't even stay awake to

Hear those magic reindeer click

[Chorus]

'Cause I just want you here tonight

Holding on to me so tight

What more can I do?

Oh, baby, all I want for Christmas is you

You (Baby)

[Bridge]

Oh-oh, all the lights are shining so brightly everywhere (So brightly, baby)

And the sound of children's laughter fills the air

And everyone is singing

I hear those sleigh bells ringing

Santa, won't you bring me the one I really need?

Won't you please bring my baby to me?

[Verse 3]

Oh, I don't want a lot for Christmas

This is all I'm asking for

I just wanna see my baby

Standing right outside my door

[Chorus]

Oh, I just want you for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true

Oh, baby, all I want for Christmas is you (You, baby)

[Outro]

(All I want for Christmas is you, baby) You

(All I want for Christmas is you, baby) Ah, ah

(All I want for Christmas is you, baby) You

(All I want for Christmas is you, baby) All I want, all I really want

(All I want for Christmas is you, baby) All I want, all I really want
