This time last year I recall Dancing at the music hall The story goes, truth be told I think it's funny after all We met beneath the Christmas lights The big band broke the silent night Your eyes were bright, the music right The energy was out of sight I didn't know what to say So we danced the night away I never asked for your name I spent my winter wishing for one thing I hoped that Santa Claus would bring This December's Christmas Eve I hope he'll be bringing you right back to me Underneath the mistletoe We let our premonitions go We closed our eyes, not thinking twice You set my burning heart aglow The next day when I realized I had no way to make you mine No number, address, and no name I only had myself to blame I'm praying that you'll be here Just like you and I last year So I can ask for your name I spent my winter wishing for one thing I hoped that Santa Claus would bring Don't want no toys or shiny rings I hope he will open your heart up to me I spent my winter wishing just for you I hope you feel the same way, too I hope we share a point of view So bring it on back Open your heart Make a new start when you come back to me
