I Wish That I Could Be With You for Christmas

I hope you see a gift from me Underneath your Christmas tree Wrapped in pretty paper and a bow Even though we must be far apart I send this gift with all my heart And hope when you receive it you will know I wish that I could be with you for Christmas And we could lie next to the fire by the tree But til I return my heart will yearn For your tender kiss And I'm left to dream of yule tide scenes And our Christmases to be I wish that I could be there now As you hang the tinsel on each bough And place the angel on the top with care I had to go on one more tour But I'll be home soon you can be sure And I hope you'll think of me until I'm there I wish that I could be with you for Christmas And we could lie next to the fire by the tree But til I return my heart will yearn For your tender kiss And I'm left to dream of yule tide scenes And our Christmases to be I see Christmas lights on every street And hear snow crunch beneath my feet And count the minutes til I'm home with you I wrote a note to old St. Nick Wishing I could get home quick I hope he reads it and that he comes through I wish that I could be with you for Christmas And we could lie next to the fire by the tree But til I return my heart will yearn For your tender kiss And I'm left to dream of yule tide scenes And our Christmases to be
