(Carla Thomas)
Hello there, Merry Christmas, how've you been,
Gee, it's so good to talk to you again,
It's been a long, long time,
Can't explain why you've crossed my mind,
I guess it's just to wish you a Merry Christmas.
My best friend's having a party and everbody's going,
I know it's gonna be alot of fun, oh, by the way, it's snowing,
It's been a long, long time,
Can't explain why you've crossed my mind,
I guess it's just to say,
Gee whiz, it's Christmas.
It's funny that I never thought to call you before,
And why didn't I ever see you around anymore,
Another year has passed, and I can't erase,
The memory of your smiling face,
So I had to call you up and say,
Gee whiz, it's Christmas.
So don't forget the party that's just growing,
The warm fire from the fireplace will be glowing,
It's been a long, long time,
I still can't figure out why you've crossed my mind,
I guess it's just to say,
Gee whiz, it's Christmas.
I'm wishing you a Merry,
Have a Merry, Merry Christmas
Gee whiz ...
