The cold wind is blowing and the streets are getting dark I'm writing you this letter though I don't know where to start The bells will be ringing Saint John Divine I get a little lonely every year around this time The music plays all night in Little Italy The lights will be going up on Rockefella's tree People window shopping on Fifth Avenue But all I want for Christmas is you Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas Nobody ought to be Alone on Christmas Things are different since you've been here last Childhood dreaming is a thing of the past Maybe you can bring us some hope this year Visions of sugar plums have all disappeared Do you remember sleigh riding in the snow? And dancing all night to "Baby, Please Come Home" Today's celebration is bittersweet There's mothers and children crying in the street Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas Nobody ought to be Alone on Christmas Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas Nobody ought to be Alone on Christmas I've got to know Where do lonely hearts go? Where do lonely hearts go on Christmas? I'm all grown up but I'm the same you see I'm writing you this letter cause I still believe Dear Santa Clause, I'm still right here Waiting for you to come this year Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas Nobody ought to be Alone on Christmas Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas Nobody ought to be Alone on Christmas
