Christmas Prayer…
Darling, it’s that time of year
When everybody’s full of love
So what the hell we think of?
Oh darling (darling), don’t let it disappear
We’ve gotta give this one more try (give it one more chance)
My one last wish runs out tonight
And I can’t wait, I can’t wait, can’t wait any longer
This aching heart is getting stronger
I know the way to make it all better
Back at the place we got together
Say that you’ll meet me there
You’re my wish, you’re my Christmas prayer
Snowflakes falling in my hair and I ain’t going anywherе
Say that you’ll meet me there
You’rе my wish, you’re my Christmas prayer
Santa’s coming, I don’t care
All I wanna know is will you be there?
Say that you’ll meet me there
La la la la la
I guess we’ve done a lot of drifting apart
And I know there’s a weight on your heart
Gonna take all my mistletoe (mistletoe, mistletoe)
And I’m not gonna let you go
I’m taking every step as fast as I can
To get me back to you
Hoping you’ll feel the same
Bringing the magic rain
And I can’t wait, I can’t wait, can’t wait any longer
This aching heart is getting stronger
I know the way to make it all better
Back at the place where we got together
Say that you’ll meet me there
You’re my wish, you’re my Christmas prayer
Snowflakes falling in my hair and I ain’t going anywhere
Say that you’ll meet me there
You’re my wish, you’re my Christmas prayer
Santa’s coming, I don’t care
All I wanna know is will you be there?
Why can’t every Christmas be the same
When I write my list, I write your name
Now I’m only wishing that you’ll stay
Say that you’ll meet me there
You’re my wish, you’re my Christmas prayer
Snowflakes falling in my hair
And I ain’t going anywhere
Baby It’s Cold Outside…
I really can’t stay (But, baby, it’s cold outside)
I’ve got to go away (But, baby, it’s cold outside)
This evening has been (Been hoping that you’d drop in)
So very nice (I’ll hold your hands, they’re just like ice)
My mother will start to worry (Beautiful, what’s your hurry?)
My father will be pacing the floor (Listen to the fireplace roar)
So, really, I’d better scurry (Beautiful, please don’t hurry)
But maybe just a half a drink more (Put some records on while I pour)
The neighbors might think (Baby, it’s bad out there)
Say, what’s in this drink? (No cab’s to be had out there)
I wish I knew how (Your eyes are like starlight now)
To break this spell (I’ll take your hat, your hair looks swell)
I ought to say, “No, no, no, sir” (Mind if I move in closer?)
At least I’m gonna say that I tried (What’s the sense of hurtin’ my pride?)
[Chorus: Marilyn Maxwell, Dean Martin & Both]
I really can’t stay
(Oh, baby, don’t hold out)
Baby, it’s cold outside
I simply must go (But, baby, it’s cold outside)
The answer is no (But, baby, it’s cold outside)
Your welcome has been (How lucky that you dropped in)
So nice and warm (Look out the window at the storm)
My sister will be suspicious (Gosh your lips look delicious)
My brother will be there at the door (Waves upon the tropical shore)
My maiden aunt’s mind is vicious (Gosh your lips are delicious)
But maybe just a cigarette more (Never such a blizzard before)
I’ve gotta get home (But, baby, you’d freeze out there)
Say, lend me a coat (It’s up to your knees out there)
You’ve really been grand (I thrill when you touch my hand)
But don’t you see? (How can you do this thing to me?)
There’s bound to be talk tomorrow (Think of my lifelong sorrow)
At least there will be plenty implied (If you got pneumonia and died)
I really can’t stay
(Get over that cold out)
Baby, it’s cold
Baby, it’s cold outside
