I wanted to hold you and keep you with me, this year You’re my darling and I want you near I wanted to whisper sweet words of comfort in your ear No more sorrow and no more fear
Oh, my love When will we know If we can meet under the mistletoe?
And I’m writing this song about Christmas in April this year So I’m not sure what to think about that And I’m hoping these words don’t ring so hollow when you hear You say “Merry Christmas” and “Happy New Year”
Fits and starts, upset apple carts Conspiring to keep us apart
I wanted to hold you and keep you with me, this year You’re my darling and I want you near I’m hoping these words don’t ring so hollow when you hear You say “Merry Christmas” and “Happy New Year” And maybe all the winds blow away all our fears Said “Merry Christmas” and “Happy New Year”
