"All Alone On Christmas" lyrics

Cold wind is blowin' and the streets are getting dark
Writing you a letter, I don't know where to start
The bells will be ringing Saint John the Divine
I get a little lonely every year around this time

The music plays all night in Little Italy
The lights are going up on old Rockefella's tree
People window shopping on Fifth Avenue
But all I want for Christmas is you

I've got to know
(Nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas)
Where do lonely hearts go
(Nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas)
Oh, 'cause nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas

Things are different since you've been here last
Childhood dreaming is a thing of the past
Maybe you can bring us some hope this year
Visions of sugar plums have disappeared

Do you remember sleigh riding in the snow?
And dancing all night to "Baby, Please Come Home"
Today's celebration is bittersweet
There's mothers and children in the street, yeah

I've got to know
(Nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas)
Where do lonely hearts go
(Nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas)
Oh, 'cause nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas

I'm all grown up but I'm the same, you'll see
I'm writing you this letter 'cause I still believe
Oh baby, I've been good this year
Can you stay a little while with me, right here?

I've got to know

Mmm I've got to know
(Nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas)
Where do lonely hearts go
(Nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas)
Yeah, 'cause nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
Nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
