All I wanted for Christmas

waiting at the stoplight
as the snow continues to fall
wish this light would change
wish that you would call
it's been way too long
since i heard your voice
it's really dark out tonight
i wish i had a choice
what happened to us
where did we go wrong
i wrote all these words for you
will you hear them in this song

i thought these days would be ours
hand in hand walking in the snow
moonlight kiss and hot chocolate
everywhere and nowhere to go
still remember my dream of you
smiling by the lights on the tree
all i wanted for christmas
was you, a forever you and me

now i'm turning down the street
that once led to our home
always seems so empty
now that i'm alone
there's a hairclip that you left
something so small, shouldn't matter
i'll hold on to this piece of you
with my heart torn ripped and tattered
and there's lights on the houses
to spread their christmas cheer
my home's as dark as me
without my baby here
i can't wish for you to come home
i guess that's where you've gone
i won't get my christmas wish
i guess i knew it all along.

i hoped these nights would be ours
hand in hand walking in the snow
moonlight kiss and hot chocolate
everywhere and nowhere to go
can't let go of the dream of you
smiling by the lights on the tree
all i wanted for christmas
was you, our forever you and me
