Merry Christmas, Darling Lyrics
[Intro]
Greeting cards have all been sent
The Christmas rush is through
But I still have one wish to make
A special one for you
[Verse 1]
Merry Christmas, darling
We're apart, that's true
But I can dream and in my dreams
I'm Christmasing with you
[Verse 2]
Holidays are joyful
There's always something new
But every day is a holiday
When I'm near to you
[Pre-Chorus]
The lights on my tree
I wish you could see
I wish it every day
Logs on the fire
Fill me with desire
To see you and to say
Greeting cards have all been sent
The Christmas rush is through
But I still have one wish to make
A special one for you
[Verse 1]
Merry Christmas, darling
We're apart, that's true
But I can dream and in my dreams
I'm Christmasing with you
[Verse 2]
Holidays are joyful
There's always something new
But every day is a holiday
When I'm near to you
[Pre-Chorus]
The lights on my tree
I wish you could see
I wish it every day
Logs on the fire
Fill me with desire
To see you and to say
[Chorus]
That I wish you merry Christmas (Merry Christmas, darling)
Happy New Year too
I've just one wish on this Christmas Eve (On this Christmas Eve)
I wish I were with you
[Pre-Chorus]
Logs on the fire
Fill me with desire
To see you and to say
[Chorus]
That I wish you merry Christmas (Merry Christmas, darling)
Happy New Year too
I've just one wish on this Christmas Eve (On this Christmas Eve)
I wish I were with you
I wish I were with you
[Outro]
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, darling
That I wish you merry Christmas (Merry Christmas, darling)
Happy New Year too
I've just one wish on this Christmas Eve (On this Christmas Eve)
I wish I were with you
[Pre-Chorus]
Logs on the fire
Fill me with desire
To see you and to say
[Chorus]
That I wish you merry Christmas (Merry Christmas, darling)
Happy New Year too
I've just one wish on this Christmas Eve (On this Christmas Eve)
I wish I were with you
I wish I were with you
[Outro]
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, darling
