I’d give anything to see
A little Christmas tree
And to hear, hear the laughter
Of children playing in the snow
To kiss my baby, under the mistletoe
But I can’t promise my eyes this sight
Unless they stop the fight
Cause I’m a prisoner of war
Lying here in my cell
Hoping my family is well
Wish they wouldn’t worry so much about me
Just try to get us home
In time for the Christmas tree
Listen, oh yeah, ooo
I want to see snowflakes fall
I want to see Santa Claus
Ooo, I want to hear jingle bells ring
Want to hear jingle bells ringing
But I can’t promise my eyes this sight
Unless they stop the fight
Ooo, ooo, ooo
If I can’t make it home in time
I know you’ll be keeping my spirit bright
By wearing my name and trying to stop this fight
Ah, but I’d give anything to see you the family
And that little Christmas tree
Ooo, I want to see snowflakes fall
I want to see Santa Claus
Oh, I want to hear jingle bells ringing
Yes, I want to hear jingle bells ringing
Ooo, I want to see snowflakes fall
I want to see Santa Claus
I out right hate Christmas songs but this one !! Not a Christmas guy...not at all but Marvin Gaye was just dat talented ...I can rock with this one as well
Our strong men need strong women & vice versa!! That makes our family have the power to move our children or see the light....Holy night & forever .... Stay blessed... Amen
This is such a nice Christmas song by Marvin Gaye, but I still think that it would have been nice if Marvin was still alive to record a real Christmas album with some more great songs, instead of just hearing this one song by him.
