My wish for all the world On Christmas day Would last the whole year through 'Cause for all the love I've known On Christmas day I wish to give to you Oh spendin' every day In an old familiar way With not much time to give But don't tell me we can't try To be someone else's light It's how I wish to live 'Cause my wish for all the world On Christmas day Is to find some peace in troubled land Then the joy in younger eyes On Christmas Day Would live in all of man Oh spendin' every day In an old familiar way With not much time to give But don't tell me we can't try To be someone else's light It's how I wish to live Oh spendin' every day In an old familiar way With not much time to give But don't tell me we can't try To be someone else's light It's how I wish to live 'Cause my wish for all the world On Christmas day Will last the whole year through 'Cause for all the love I've known On Christmas day I wish to give to you I wish to give to you
