Lyrics

I can't wait to unwrap you at Christmas
you're the gift for me
I can't wait to unwrap you at Christmas
under the Christmas tree

I can't wait to unwrap you at Christmas
I dream of nothing more
So dear Santa when you read my letter
please drop her at my door

I've been waiting
all year now baby
for the snow and
you to return
So I'll hang the mistletoe and
stand right here
cross my fingers
hope I'll get my wish this year (I'll get my wish this year)

I can't wait to unwrap you at Christmas
You're the gift for me (you're the gift for me)
I can't wait to unwrap you at Christmas
Under the Christmas tree (under the Christmas tree)
I can't wait to unwrap you at Christmas
I dream of nothing more (dream of nothing more)
So dear Santa when you read my letter
Please drop her at my door (please drop her at my door)

I've been saving
all all my kisses
just to spend them
on your sweet lips
So I'll decorate the place with
light and cheer
knowing Christmas day
you will be standing here (you will be standing here)

I can't wait to unwrap you at Christmas
you're the gift for me
I can't wait to unwrap you at Christmas
under the Christmas tree
I can't wait to unwrap you at Christmas
I dream of nothing more
So dear Santa when you read my letter
please drop her at my door

I can't wait to unwrap you at Christmas
I can't wait to unwrap you at Christmas
I can't wait to unwrap you at Christmas
I can't wait to unwrap you at Christmas
