Dear Santa Claus - Bobby Womack

You know, I started writing this song

When I was about seven, eight years old

And I′m glad to say that I'm finally finished with it

And I dedicate this song to you

Dear Santa Claus, send me someone

Someone who′ll be there for the next Christmas comes

Make her be someone I can call my own

So I don't have to spend another Christmas all alone

(Dear Santa Claus) dear Santa Claus

(Dear Santa Claus) you know I've been good

So, give her a beautiful smile if you could (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Make her be gentle as a falling rain (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Make her kisses sweeter, ha

Sweeter than a candy cane

And on Christmas Eve

Send her to my dreams

Like an angel straight from up above

And if she′s there for me (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Underneath the tree (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Oh, what a wonderful, wonderful Christmas it will be

Believe me (dear Santa Claus)

Dear (dear Santa Claus)

I don′t need any snow

Just bring me somebody (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Underneath the mistletoe (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Make her be someone (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

I can call my own (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

So I don't have to spend a Christmas all alone

And on Christmas Eve

Send her to my dreams

Like an angel straight from up above

And if she′s there for me

Oh, underneath my tree

What a wonderful Christmas it will be
