I would write a thousand letters   Just to talk to you   I would climb a hundred mountains   Just to be with you      I would make it snow in summer   If it meant you'd stay   Turn back time when we're together   Make it Christmas day      Look at the stars twinkling bright in the dark   Like the snow in the cold winter sun   Here by the fire the sound of your voice warms my heart   But it don't feel like Christmas without you in my arms      All over town people running around   They got stars in their eyes   Hurrying home to be close to the one   That they love, yeah      Light on the tree, shining shadows on me   As I wait by the fire   Presents and dreams but for me   You'd be enough      I'll be waiting by the phone   (I'll be waiting)   Till my baby's coming home   (I'll be waiting for you)   I'll be praying every night   (I'll be praying)   You'll be back soon by my side      I'll be waiting by the phone   (I'll be waiting)   Till my baby's coming home   (I'll be waiting for you)   I'll be praying every night   (I'll be praying)   You'll be back soon by my side      Count the days, count the days I've been so lonely   Come home baby, it ain't Christmas till you're here with me   Count the days, count the days, till this wait is through   Come home, babe, Christmas just ain't the same without you      When I think my world could fall apart   And I'm damn near broken in my heart   And my world is falling down   In my mind I will keep you safe from harm   Till you're lying in my arms   Until then I'll wait somehow      I'll be waiting by the phone   (I'll be waiting)   Till my baby's coming home   (I'll be waiting for you)   I'll be praying every night   (I'll be praying)   You'll be back soon by my side      I'll be waiting by the phone   (I'll be waiting)   Till my baby's coming home   (I'll be waiting for you)   I'll be praying every night   (I'll be praying)   You'll be back soon by my side      I'll be waiting by the phone   (I'll be waiting)   Till my baby's coming home   (I'll be waiting for you)   I'll be praying every night   (I'll be praying)   You'll be back soon by my side      I'll be waiting by the phone   (I'll be waiting)   Till my baby's coming home   (I'll be waiting for you)   I'll be praying every night   (I'll be praying)   You'll be back soon by my side
