Holiday Wishes

Said the night wind to the little lamb
Do you see what I see?
Way up in the sky, little lamb
Do you see what I see?
A star, a star, dancing in the night
With a tail as big as a kite
With a tail as big as a kite

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy
Do you hear what I hear?
Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy
Do you hear what I hear?
A song, a song high above the tree
With a voice as big as the the sea
With a voice as big as the the sea

Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king
Do you know what I know?
In your palace warm, mighty king
Do you know what I know?
A child, a child shivers in the cold
Let us bring him silver and gold
Let us bring him silver and gold

Said the king to the people everywhere
Listen to what I say!
Pray for peace, people, everywhere
Listen to what I say!
The child, the child sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light
He will bring us goodness and light

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like eskimos
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way (On his way)
He's bringing lots of toys
And goodies on his sleigh (Goodies on his sleigh)
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you, oh

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
(On an open fire)
Jack Frost nipping at your nose (Oh your nose)
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir, ooh

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you, ooh
Woah, hm

I really can't stay
Baby, it's cold outside
I've got to go away
Baby, it's cold outside
This evening has been
Been hoping that you'd drop in
So very nice
I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice

My mother will start to worry
Beautiful, what's your hurry?
My father will be pacing the floor
Listen to the fire place roar
So really I'd better scurry
Beautiful, please don't hurry
But maybe just half a drink more
Put some records on while I pour

The neighbors might think
Baby, it's bad out there
Say what's in this drink?
No cabs to be had out there
I wish I knew how
Your eyes are like starlight now
To break this spell
I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell

I ought to say no no no, sir
Mind if I move in closer?
At least I'm gonna say that I tried
What's the sense in hurting my pride?
I really can't stay
Baby, don't hold out
Baby it's cold outside

(Ugh, you're very pushy, you know)
(I'd like to think of it as opportunistic)

I simply must go
But, baby, it's cold outside
The answer is "No"
But, baby, it's cold outside
This welcome has been
How lucky that you dropped in
So nice and warm
Look out the window at that storm

My sister will be suspicious
Gosh your lips look delicious
My brother will be there at the door
Waves upon a tropical shore
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious
Gosh your lips are delicious
But maybe just a cigarette more
Never such a blizzard before

I've got to get home
But, baby, you'll freeze out there
Say, lend me a coat?
It's up to your knees out there
You've really been grand
I thrill when you touch your hand
But don't you see
How can you do this thing to me?

There's bound to be talk tomorrow
Think of my life-long sorrow
At least there will be plenty implied
If you got pneumonia and died
I really can't stay
Get over that hold out
Baby it's cold outside
Baby it's cold outside

Okay, fine, just another drink
But, That took a lot of convincing

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on our troubles
Will be out of sight, hm

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay
From now on our troubles
Will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years
We all will be together
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star
Up on the highest bough
And have yourself
A merry little Christmas now

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
(Merry little Christmas)
Make the Yule-tide gay
From now on our troubles
Will be miles away (Miles away), away

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years
We all will be together
If the Fates allow, oh
Hang a shining star
Up on the highest bough (bough)
And have yourself a merry little Christmas
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Oh yeah

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 baby is you

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 don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day

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

Oh, I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow
I 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

'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do?
Baby, all I want for Christmas is you, you baby

Oh, all the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
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?

I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door

Oh, I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby, all I want for Christmas
Is you yeah
You
Is you woo
All I want for Christmas is you
(All I want for Christmas is you)
All I want for Christmas is you
(All I want for Christmas is you)
Give me more
All I want for Christmas is you
Give me two now
All I want for Christmas is you
I sing all I want for Christmas is you
All I want for Christmas is you
I don't need nobody more than you
I don't need nobody else but you
I don't need nobody (I don't need nobody)
I don't need nobody
But you (I don't need nobody)
All I want for Christmas is you
All I want for Christmas is you
All I want for Christmas is you
All I want for Christmas is you

Maybe it's much too early in the game
Aah, but I thought I'd ask you just the same
What are you doing New Year's
New Year's Eve?

Wonder whose arms will hold you good and tight
When it's exactly twelve o'clock that night
Welcoming in the New Year
New Year's Eve

Maybe I'm crazy to suppose
I'd ever be the one you chose
Out of a thousand invitations
You received

Aah, but in case I stand one little chance
Here comes the jackpot question in advance
baby
What are you doing New Year's
New Year's Eve?
Ohhh

Maybe I'm crazy to suppose
I'd ever be the one you chose
Out of a thousand invitations
You received
Ohh

But in case I stand one little chance
Here comes the jackpot question in advance
What are you doing on New Year's Eve?
Tell me what are you doing New Year's Eve?

In the touch of a friend in the breath of a child
In the eyes of a soldier coming home
To his mother's grateful smile
In the sight of falling snow
And the memories it brings
In the season when you find some peace
In the simple tender things
Open your heart and look around listen listen

Hear the song within the silence
See the beauty when there's nothing there
Sing a song within a silence
That hope and love are everywhere
And when the quiet night is falling
Watch an angel dancing in the air
To the song
The song within the silence a December Prayer
A December Prayer

In the strength of your hand
As it holds unto mine
And the promise that we're not alone
In this place and time
In the gifts that you give I am humbled
And amazed
Far beyond this day and time of year
We are in a state of grace
Open your heart and look around listen listen

Hear the song within the silence
See the beauty when there's nothing there
Sing a song within a silence
That hope and love are everywhere
And when the quiet night is falling
Watch an angel dancing in the air
To the song the song within
The silence a December Prayer
A December Prayer

Listen listen

Hear the song within the silence
See the beauty when there's nothing there
Sing a song within a silence
That hope and love are everywhere
And when the quiet night is falling
Watch an angel dancing in the air
To the song the song within
The silence a December Prayer
A December Prayer

When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you

If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do

Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of their secret longing
Like a boat out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you through

When you wish upon a star
Your dreams come true

Silent night, holy night
All is calm and all is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from Heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing, sing Halleluiah
Christ the savior is born
Christ our savior is
Christ our savior is
Christ our savior is born

Silent night (Silent night)
Silent night
Silent night
Silent night
And praise the Lord
Silent night

It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on

But it don't snow here
It stays pretty green
I'm going to make a lot of money
Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby cry, yeah

He tried hard to help me
He put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I'm so hard to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby
That I ever had
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on

Oh I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to, to fly
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby say goodbye, say goodbye
Say goodbye

It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
Singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I, I wish I had a river I could skate away on.
Yeah I wish I had a river I could skate away on and on
And on, and on

Have a holly jolly Christmas
It's the best time of the year
I don't know if there'll be snow
But have a cup of cheer

Have a holly jolly Christmas
And when we walk down the street
Say hello to friends you know
And everyone we meet

Oh ho the mistletoe
Hung where you can see
Somebody waits for you
Kiss him once for me

Have a holly jolly Christmas
And in case you didn't hear
Oh by golly have a holly jolly
Christmas this year

Oh ho the mistletoe
Hung where you can see
Somebody waits for you
Kiss him once for me

So have a holly jolly Christmas
And in case you didn't hear
Oh by golly have a holly jolly
Christmas this year

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white, oh

Oh, I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
I'm dreaming, dreaming of a white Christmas, oh yeah
I'm dream, dreaming of a white Christmas
