All I Want for Christmas Is You
A Christmas Wish: Love Beyond Gifts
Lyrics
I don't want a lot for Christmas
I desire simple and meaningful things for Christmas, not an abundance.
There's just one thing I need
There's only one essential thing I wish to have for Christmas.
I don't care about those presents
I am not interested in material gifts placed under the Christmas tree.
Underneath the Christmas tree
The focus is not on the gifts but on a person or a relationship.
I just want you for my own
I desire your presence and companionship.
More than you could ever know
My desire for you goes beyond what you may realize or comprehend.
Make my wish come true
I hope my wish becomes a reality.
You know that all I want for Christmas is you
Emphasizing that the most important thing is the person being addressed.
I wont ask for much this Christmas
I won't make extravagant requests this Christmas.
I won't even wish for snow
I don't even desire a traditional Christmas element like snow.
No, I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Expressing patience and anticipation for a special moment under the mistletoe.
Underneath the mistletoe
Highlighting the romantic significance of being under the mistletoe.
There's no sense in hanging stockings
Questioning the necessity of traditional Christmas customs like hanging stockings.
There upon the fireplace 'cause
Explaining the lack of joy from typical Christmas gifts.
Santa, he won't make me happy
Downplaying the impact of material gifts on happiness.
With a toy on Christmas day
Avoiding joy from a toy on Christmas, emphasizing deeper desires.
I just want you here tonight
Expressing the desire for the person to be present on Christmas night.
Holding on to me so tight
Desiring a close and affectionate connection with the person.
Girl, what can I do
Expressing a sense of helplessness in the situation.
You know that all I want for Christmas is you
Reiterating that the ultimate desire is the person's presence.
And all the lights are shining so brightly everywhere
Describing the festive atmosphere with bright lights everywhere.
And the sound of children's laughter fills the air
Noting the joyous sounds of children laughing during Christmas.
And everyone is singing
Highlighting the communal spirit with everyone participating in singing.
I can hear those sleigh bells ringing
Immersing in the festive atmosphere with the sound of sleigh bells ringing.
Santa, won't you bring me the one I really love
Addressing Santa, expressing the specific wish for the beloved person.
Won't you please bring my baby to me
Urging Santa to bring the loved one closer.
I don't want a lot for Christmas
Reiterating the simple desire for Christmas, emphasizing its importance.
This is all I'm asking for
Clarifying that the only request is to see the beloved person.
No, I just want to see my baby
Expressing the desire for the person to be physically close.
Standing right outside my door
Anticipating the joy of having the beloved person at the doorstep.
I just want you for my own
Reiterating the fundamental desire for the person's companionship.
More than you could ever know
Emphasizing the depth of the desire for the person.
Make my wish come true
Expressing the hope for the wish to come true.
You know that all I want for Christmas
Concluding by restating that the ultimate Christmas wish is the person.
Is you
Repeating the core desire for the beloved person.
Is you
Reiterating the central theme that all that is desired for Christmas is the person.
