Lyrics

I don't want a lot for Christmas

I desire simplicity and don't have extravagant wishes for Christmas.

There is just one thing I need

There is only one specific thing that I truly want.

I don't care about the presents

The material gifts and presents are not important to me.

Underneath the Christmas tree

The focus is not on the gifts placed under the Christmas tree.

I just want you for my own

I desire your presence and companionship for Christmas.

More than you could ever know

My longing for you is beyond what words can express.

Make my wish come true oh

I hope my desire comes true; asking for a Christmas miracle.

All I want for Christmas is you

The ultimate wish for Christmas is to have you.


I don't want a lot for Christmas

Reiteration of not desiring numerous things for Christmas.

There is just one thing I need, and

There is only one specific thing I need, emphasizing simplicity.

I
 Don't care about the presents

The materialistic aspects of the holiday are not significant.

Underneath the Christmas tree

The focus remains on the joy of togetherness rather than gifts.

I don't need to hang my stocking

Not concerned about traditional Christmas decorations like stockings.

There upon the fireplace

Downplaying the importance of typical holiday symbols like the fireplace.

Santa Claus won't make me happy

Emphasizing that material gifts from Santa Claus won't bring happiness.

With a toy on Christmas day

Toys on Christmas day are not essential for joy.
