that's what i want for christmas
i don't need another present underneath the christmas tree
no there's really only one thing that i want for you and me.

if everyone in the whole wide world
could live in peace tonight
every man and woman, boy and gir
would be feeling safe and right

and the light in the eyes of each of us
would be shining bright with love
that's what i want for christmas
that's what i'm dreaming of

that's what i want for christmas
no more hunger, no more fear
that's what i want for christmas
each and every year

if only it could always be
like it's never been before
and then one bright morning we would wake to find
that we'd put an end to war

and the light in the eyes of each of us
would be shining bright with love
that's what i want for christmas
that's what i'm dreaming of

that's what i want for christmas
no more hunger, no more fear
that's what i want for christmas
each and every year
