Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I don't want a lot for Christmas

There's just one thing I need

I don't care about the presents

Underneath the Christmas tree

I won't put my shoe on it

For little Santa Claus

He can forget my toy

It's not for him that I make myself beautiful

But to hold on my arms

Nothing would make me so happy

Will you think on me?

Yes, all I want for Christmas

Is you!

Yes, it's you!

Yes, it's you!

I don't want a lot for Christmas

There's just one thing I need

I don't care about the presents

Underneath the Christmas tree

I won't put my shoe on it

For little Santa Claus

He can forget my toy

It's not for him that I make myself beautiful

But if you offered me your heard

Nothing would make me so happy

Will you think on me?

Yes, all I want for Christmas

Is you!

Yes, it's you!

But hold you in my arms

Nothing would make me so happy

Will you think on me?

Yes, all I want for Christmas

Is you!

Yes, it's you!

Yes, it's you!
