All I Want For Christmas
Written by Tommy Shaw
Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw
Every Christmas I'll be crossing my fingers
Every time I'm gonna hold my breath
I sent a letter up to old Kris Kringle
But I haven't got an answer yet
All I want for Christmas
All I need for Christmas
All I'm asking for is this
To feel your kiss on Christmas
I don't need another turtleneck sweater
I don't even like to wear cologne
But I know something that'll suit me better
More than anything I've ever known
All I want for Christmas
All I need for Christmas
All I'm waiting for is this
To feel your kiss on Christmas day
All I want for Christmas
All I need for Christmas
All I'm waiting for is this
To feel your kiss on Christmas day
On Christmas day
On Christmas day

Interpretation
Tommy performed this song live on the air during an appearance on the Mark & Brian radio show. Obviously, it is a lighthearted Christmas love song.
