The cold wind is blowing and the streets are getting dark I'm writting you a letter and I don't know where to start The bells will be ringing Saint John the Divine I get a little lonely everyday around this time The music plays all night in Little Italy The lights will be going up on old Rockafella's tree People window shoppin' on 5th avenue All I want for Christmas is you Chorus: (Tell me) I've got to know Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas (Where do lonely hearts go) Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas (Oh) Nobody ought to be 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 ridin' in the snow And dancin' all night to 'Baby, Please Come Home' Todays celebration is bittersweet There's mothers and children in the street Chorus: (Tell me) I've got to know Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas (Where do lonely hearts go) Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas (Oh) Nobody ought to be 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 Dear Santa, I've been good this year Can't you stay alittle while, with me right here? Chorus: (Tell me) I've got to know Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas (Where do lonely hearts go) Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas (Because) Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas
