I'd love to spend this Christmas sitting by the fire with you
I'd love to spend this Christmas sitting by the fire with you
I'm so happy for the moment that we share the whole day through

Jingle bells is ringing, children playing out in the snow
Jingle bells is ringing, children playing out in the snow
There be turkey on the table, Christmas presents on the floor

Everyone seems so happy, seasons greetings fill the air
Everyone seems so happy, seasons greetings fill the air
Santy Claus is spreading Christmas presents everywhere

When I go shopping there's one thing I'd like to do
When I go shopping there's one thing I'd like to do
Send a pretty present signed with all my love to you

I won't be home to help you decorate your Christmas tree
Well, I know I won't be home to help you decorate your Christmas tree
I'll be thinking about you baby, and I hope you think of me

I know you look so lovely standing beneath the mistletoe
Yes, I know you look so lovely standing beneath the mistletoe
I'm gonna hold and kiss you, tell you why I love you so

I'd love to spend this Christmas standing by the fire with you

Drinking eggnog with fruitcake, just like we used to do

I know I won't be with you baby, on that happy holiday
Yes, I know I won't be with you, on that happy holiday
I can wish you a Merry Christmas in an old fashioned way
