I wrote this song at the ripe old age of 12 & found the lyrics for it recently. Although the songwriter in me "current day" gasped at the thought of singing it in front of anyone without a complete & total rewrite, something else inside me was charmed by the innocence & simplicity of a song I'd written long before I ever considered myself a songwriter. Plus it reminded me of a girl I'd never met, but wanted so badly to sing this to. :) So I decided it would be fun to work this up for my friends at youtube! I went ahead & added a piano solo, some new musical touches & changed a couple lyrics but pretty much left the tune the way I wrote it back then. This was a ton of work, but a ton of fun at the same time. Hope you all enjoy & merry Christmas to ya!
ps. Also dedicated to my Mom who loved anything I performed that resembled a polka. :)

LYRICS
This Christmas (All I Really, Really Want)
Christmas is coming & I'm in love
Oh how I wish you loved me too
Ive been too shy, to show you whats inside
So Ive been alone the whole year through
Now I've made my resolve
Time to tell it all
And I just can't wait another day
If you would like to know
What I want this year
Here's what I have to say
(chorus)
Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen
Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen
Dashing through the snow
Bells on bobtails, children singing
Whistling lights & sleigh bells ringing
Lots of mistletoe
Now all these things are nice at Christmas
But just one thing's on my wish list
I hope it comes true
Cause all I really, really want this Christmas
Is to spend it next to you
(bridge)
Snow & hearts are falling hard
(What I would give to spend every Christmas
Holding you in my arms)
Really like this song!!!! Good work, Chris. Great songwriting and performance. Keep up the good work!

Catchy! :D
...Wow. I can't believe I found this too late to share for Christmas reasons, but I'll find ways to slip it into conversation ALL THE TIME.
You play the sleigh bells a little awkwardly (in my symphonic band opinion), but I loved this. Like, to pieces. :D
