THE ONLY THING THAT I'M MISSING IS YOU

There is a wreath, on our front door

And garland climbing up the stairs

There's a tree, with an angel, on the top

And presents piled everywhere

There are sleds outside, cocoa on the stove

It's been snowing for a day or two

The only thing

That I'm missing

Is you

~~~*Chorus*~~~

No you can't be here for Christmas

I don't know when you'll be home

But Christmas is too beautiful 

To spend it all alone

I'm gathered with our family

The house is full of guests

I will serve the dinner

While you serve us all... 

On Christmas

~~*~~

Oh silent night, and jingle bells

Are drifting softly through the rooms

The only thing 

That I'm missing

Is You

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~

Your Dad wants to be in charge of games

Mine wants to play charades

Your Mother wants to make the rolls

Mine claims there is a better way

Your Sister brought her new baby

Mine brought her whole danged brood

The only thing 

That I'm missing 

Is you

~~*~~

~~~*Chorus*~~~

No you can't be here for Christmas

I don't know when you'll be home

But Christmas is too beautiful 

To spend it all alone

I'm gathered with our family

The house is full of guests

I will serve the dinner

While you serve us all... 

On Christmas

~~*~~

The only thing

That I'm missing

Is You

~~*~~
