lyrics

If you'll pardon my wishing.
So close to Christmas time.
I know you keep such busy hours
But can you answer mine.

I haven't been good but I haven't been mean,
And people have been kind to me.
And I have these stars, that I embrace,
Wrapped around this Christmas tree.
But there is a melancholy, like a ship on a weary sea,
And the girl I adore, on that distant shore
Leaves a hole where my heart should be.

Oh, I have enough adventure,
That's not what I dream of.
All that I want for Christmas is- an uncomplicated love.

Yes, it seems that there are these complications,
No matter what we do.
When love tries to walk, when love tries to talk,
When love tries to think things through.
And sometimes love stops at nothing
And goes by some other name.
If you're in the way then you'll get hurt.
It's just the rules of the game.

Oh, I have enough adventure,
That's not what I dream of.
All that I want for Christmas is- an uncomplicated love.

Somewhere there was a boy and there was a girl.
Somehow they must have fallen in love.
They lived together and then they died.
And that's all there was......

Oh, I have enough adventure,
That's not what I dream of.
All that I want for Christmas is- an uncomplicated love.

Am I asking for the moon.......
Am I asking so much......
All that I want for Christmas is - an uncomplicated love.
