Soon as gifts opened up
I’ve collected my last hug
and the ribbons and the bows are still there on the ground
Before the stockings get unhung,
The popcorn is unstrung
Or the tinsel on the tree starts comin’ down

I’m wishin’ for Christmas
Anticipating future smiles
I’m makin’ my wish list
Like it’s going out of style
365 more days to go
The cocoa in my cup’s not even cold and
I’m wishin’ for Christmas

I'm find’n it hard to say goodbye
To the twinklin’ of the lights
I’m just not ready for the snow to melt away
Why does the season have to end
I’m holdin' my breathe till it comes back again
funny how I miss it even before it fades

I’m wishin’ for Christmas
Anticipating future smiles
I’m makin’ my wish list
Like it’s going out of style
365 more days to go
The cocoa in my cup’s not even cold and
I’m wishin’ for Christmas
I’m wishin’ for Christmas

Call me crazy; call me anything you want
but I can’t keep myself for holdin’ on and

wishin’ for Christmas
Anticipating future smiles
I’m makin’ my wish list
Like it’s going out of style
365 more days to go
The cocoa in my cup’s not even cold and
I’m wishin’ for Christmas
I’m wishin’ for Christmas
