I don't need 12 long days of Christmas
I don't want that holly jolly cheer
I don't need 12 long days of Christmas
I just need your Christmas presence here
I don't need those silver bells ringing in Christmas joy
I don't need snow blanketing the ground
I don't need to deck the halls with boughs of anything
I just need your Christmas presence here
I don't hear angel choirs singing
I don't see sleighs with nine reindeer
I don't hear angel choirs singing
I just need your Christmas presence hear
I don't see those sugar plums dancing in the children's heads
I don't feel the spell of a holy night
I don't wish for stockings hung with tenderness and care
I just need your Christmas presence here
I don't need this day to be the best one of the year
I just need your Christmas spirit here
