I was making a list
  I was checking it twice
  In the middle of this
  I got tears in my eyes
  For in my foolish heart
  There was one simple truth
  The only gift I wanted was you
  I was trimming the tree
  I was stringing the lights
  While the radio played "Silent Night"
  There were present you sent
  Though there were quite a few
  The only gift I wanted was you
    You need to be home with me
  Alone with me
  Holding me next to the Christmas tree
  Kissing under the mistletoe
  As candles blow
  Please come home soon
  It's not the same without you
    As the bittersweet night
  Had come to an end
  I was saying goodbye
  To our family and friends
  And they all wished me well
  And I knew that I knew
  The only gift I wanted was you
    You need to be home with me
  Alone with me
  Holding me next to the Christmas tree
  Kissing under the mistletoe
  As candles blow
  Please come home soon
  It's not the same without you
    Deck the halls with boughs of holly
  (la la la la la la...)
    The only gift I wanted was you
  You need to be home with me
  Alone with me
  Holding me next to the Christmas tree
  Kissing under the mistletoe
  As candles blow
  Please come home soon
  It's not the same without you
    I was making a list
  I was checking it twice
  In the middle of this
  I got tears in my eyes
  For in my wishful heart
  There was one simple truth
  The only gift I wanted was you
