"Dear Santa"

Everywhere in this world, children look up to you
Cause you make their Christmas wishes come true.

Santa, you have the power
To brighten a child's darkest hour.

I understand that I'm no longer a child
But if you granted my one wish, it'd be worth my wild.

So I'm gonna wish with all my might
That you'll hear my request tonight.

Santa, can you get my baby here
So all my loneliness disappears?

How I wish he was here to hold me tight
To make this Christmas seem right.

You're the only one who can help me now
And I know you'll get my baby here somehow.

So I'm wishing with all my might
That you'll bring my baby back to me tonight.

"Dear Santa"    (Part 2)

Last year I wrote you a letter with my one and only wish
Addressed the envelope to the North Pole, and sealed it.

Sent it off with great expectations
And now I'm sending you my thanks and appreciation.

You answered my letter that I wrote last year
And now I have my baby right here.

This year I have everything I want and am not asking for a thing
But maybe in a few years, I'll be in hopes for a ring.

Maybe you'll be able to help out with that
But for now, you have answered my wish and I send my deepest thanks.

Have a Merry Christmas and stay safe on your sleigh
I can't send enough thanks your way.
