Christmas eve

Each year for the past several years I have posted this video on Christmas eve.  Nobody sings this song like Karen Carpenter, and the music and lyrics are both warm and slightly melancholy.

Greeting cards have all been sent, the Christmas rush is through.

But I still have one wish to make, a special one for you.

 

Merry Christmas Darling, we're apart that's true.

But I can dream and in my dreams,I'm Christmasing with you.

Holidays are joyful, there's always something new.

But ev'ryday's a holiday, when I'm near to you.

 

The lights on my tree, I wish you could see, I wish it every day.

Logs on the fire fill me with desire to see you and to say

 

That I wish you Merry Christmas,Happy New Year too.

I've just one wish on this Christmas eve, I wish I were with you.

 

Logs on the fire fill me with desire to see you and to say

 

That I wish you Merry Christmas,Happy New Year too.

I've just one wish on this Christmas eve, I wish I were with you.

 

I wish I were with you.
