All I Want for Christmas Is You 크리스마스에 바라는 것은 오직 당신 뿐-Mariah Carey

All I Want for Christmas Is You

크리스마스에 바라는 것은 오직 당신 뿐

Mariah Carey

2019.12.24.(수) The New York Times 인터넷판 Morning Briefing에  Mariah Carey가 1994년

처음 발표한 노래 “All I Want for Christmas Is You” 가 2019년 12월에 처음 [Billboard hot 100]에

진입하였다는 기사를 보고 [oldie- but- goodie(s)라는 말이 생각나서] 검색하여 포스팅함. 

크리스마스를 맞이하며 바라는 것은 크리스마스 선물이 아니라, 오직 사랑하는 사람이 다가오기만을 바라는 마음을 노래함.

Mariah Carey’s song “All I Want for Christmas Is You” reached the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 this month

for the first time since its 1994 release. It’s not the only yuletide oldie that hit the charts this year.[NYT]

Lyrics

I don't want a lot for Christmas / There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents / Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own / More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true oh / All I want for Christmas is you

I don't want a lot for Christmas / There is just one thing I need, and I
Don't care about the presents / Underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking / There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy / With a toy on Christmas day

I just want you for my own / More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true / All I want for Christmas is you

I won't ask for much this Christmas / I won't even wish for snow, and I
I just wanna keep on waiting / Underneath the mistletoe

I won't make a list and send it / To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake / To hear those magic reindeer click

'Cause I just want you here tonight / Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do / Oh, Baby all I want for Christmas is you

All the lights are shining / So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children's / Laughter fills the air

And everyone is singing / I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me / The one I really need
Won't you please bring my baby to me quickly

I don't want a lot for Christmas / This is all I'm asking for
I just wanna see my baby / Standing right outside my door

I just want you for my own / More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true / Baby all I want for Christmas is you

All I want for Christmas is you, baby
