I've had a fire burning Since the holidays began I here its cold out where you're living But it ain't colder than I've been I've been an animal since you 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 darling, 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 Claus can bring I was adorable when you left me 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 darling, I just want you I'm not 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 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 darling, I just want you Oh oh oh I just want you, oh darling, I just want you Oh oo oh I just want you, oh darling, I just want you
