Lyrics
[Chorus]
Santa, tell me if you're really there
Don't make me fall in love again if he won't be here next year
Santa, tell me if he really cares
Cause I can't give it all away if he won't be here next year
[Verse 1]
Feeling Christmas all around
And I'm trying to play it cool
But it's hard to focus when I see him walking 'cross the room
"Let it snow" is blasting out
But I won't get it in the mood
I'm avoiding every mistletoe until I know it's...
[Pre-Chorus]
True love that he thinks of
So next Christmas I'm not all alone, boy
[Chorus]
Santa, tell me if you're really there
Don't make me fall in love again if he won't be here next year
Santa, tell me if he really cares
Cause I can't give it all away if he won't be here next year
[Verse 2]
I've been down this road before
Fell in love on Christmas night
But on New Year's Day, I woke up and he wasn't by my side
Now I need someone to hold
Be my fire in the cold
But it's hard to tell if this is just a fling or if it's...
[Pre-Chorus]
True love that he thinks of
So next Christmas I'm not all alone, boy
[Chorus]
Santa, tell me if you're really there
Don't make me fall in love again if he won't be here next year
Santa, tell me if he really cares
Cause I can't give it all away if he won't be here next year
[Bridge]
Oh, I wanna have him beside me, like ohh-woo-hooo
On the 25th, by that fireplace, ohh-woo-hooo
But I don't want a new broken heart
This year I've got to be smart
Oh, baby (Santa, tell me, Santa, tell me)
If ya won't be, if ya won't be here (Santa, tell me, Santa, tell me)
Ohh-hoo-wooo-wooho
[Breakdown]
Santa, tell me if you're really there
Don't make me fall in love again if he won't be here next year
Santa, tell me if he really cares
Cause I can't give it all away if he won't be here next year
[Chorus]
Santa, tell me if you're really there
Don't make me fall in love again if he won't be here next year
Santa, tell me if he really cares
Cause I can't give it all away if he won't be here next year
