People making lists, buying special gifts
Taking time to be kind to one and all
It's that time of year when good friends are dear
And you wish you could give more
Than just presents from a store

Why don't you give love on Christmas Day?
Oh, even the man who has everything
Would be so happy if you would
Bring him love on Christmas Day
No greater gift is there than love

People you don't know smiling out hello
Everywhere there's an air of Christmas joy
It's that once a year when the world's sincere
And you'd like to find a way
To show the things that words can't say

Why don't you give love on Christmas Day?
The man on the street and the couple upstairs
All need to know there's someone cares
Give love on Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
No greater gift is there than love

What the world needs is love
Yes, the world needs your love

Why don't you give love on Christmas Day?
Oh, every little child on Santa's knee
Has room for your love underneath his tree
Give love on Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
No greater gift is there than love

What the world needs is love
Yes, the world needs your love

Give love on Christmas Day
Oh, even the man who has everything
Would be so happy if you would
Bring him love on Christmas Day
No greater gift is there than love

What the world needs is love
Yes

Give love on Christmas Day
Oh, everybody needs, we need love
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day?
No greater gift is there than love

I lay at night and wonder, will you be here by Christmas
Though you’re far away from me, I still need you near me
What will it take for you to know, I want you here with me
What will I have to do to show; I need you here with me

This Christmas, could be the one that I get to hold you
This Christmas could be the one that I get to hold you (Hold you)

I decorate the tree and hope you’ll be here by Christmas
I wish that I could touch your face, and tell you I love you
How do I smile and hide the pain, I miss you holding me
Don’t let this Christmas be the same, I need you with me

This Christmas, could be the one, that I get to hold you
This Christmas, could be the one, that I get to hold you (Hold you)

You’ll tide at Christmas seems so lost without you here with me
Baby this time, my wish will finally comfort me
So every eye, just prepare this Christmas just might be, the one, (that you’ll be home to share this Christmas with me)

This Christmas, could be the one, that I get to hold you (Hold you)
This Christmas, could be the one, that I get to hold you
This Christmas, could be the one, that I get to hold you (Hold you)
This Christmas, could be the one, that I get to hold you
This Christmas, could be the one, that I get to hold you (Hold you)
This Christmas, could be the one, that I get to hold you
(This Christmas, could be the one, that I get to hold you, hold you,
This Christmas could be the one that I get hold you…)

Have yourself
A merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on
Our troubles
Will be out of sight

Have yourself
A merry little Christmas
Make the Yule-tide gay
From now on
Our troubles
Will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends
Who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years
We all will be together
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star
Upon the highest bough
And have yourself
A merry little Christmas now

Maybe it's much too early in the game
But I thought I'd ask you just the same
What are you doing New Year's, New Year's Eve?

Wonder whose arms will hold you good and tight
When it's exactly twelve o'clock that night
Welcoming in the New Year, New Year's Eve

Maybe I'm crazy to suppose
I'd ever be the one you chose
Out of a thousand invitations you received

But in case I stand one little chance
Here comes that jackpot question in advance
What are you doing New Year's, New Year's Eve?

But in case I stand one little chance
Here comes that jackpot question in advance
What are you doing New Year's, New Year's Eve?

[No lyrics]

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, saying how do you do
They're only saying I love you

I see babies crying, I watch them grow
They'll learn so much more than I'll ever know
Then I think to myself what a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, saying how do you do
They're only saying I love you

I see babies crying, I watch them grow
They'll learn so much more than I'll ever know
Then I think to myself what a wonderful world
Then I think to myself what a wonderful world

Bells will be ringing
The glad, glad news
Oh, what a Christmas
To end the blues
My baby's gone
I have no friends
To wish me greetings
Ooh, once again

[Choirs:]
Will be singing
Silent Night
Christmas carols
By candlelight
Please come home
For Christmas
Please come home
For Christmas
If not for Christmas
By New Year's night

Friends and relations
Send salutations
Sure as the stars
Shine above
This is Christmas
Yeah, Christmas my dear
The time of year
To be with the one
You love

So won't you tell me
You'll never more roam
Christmas and New Years
Will find you home
Please come home
For Christmas
Please come home
For Christmas
If not for Christmas
By New Year's night

There'll be
No more sorrow
No grief and pain
And I'll be happy
Happy once again

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth

Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing alleluia
Christ, the Saviour is born
Christ, the Saviour is born
