about

We've always wanted a Christmas No. 1, for various reasons. And now, undeniably, here it is at last!

Listen now, next Christmas, and repeat each year. This will grow and grow. As will the royalties.

lyrics

You are always number one, in my heart, at Christmas time, my darling
I don't need those presents under the tree
I need your presence, next to me, my darling
Stay, you can be my gift, everybody needs a little lift, this time of year, hey?

Come, as you are, just bring yourself, and your song, my darling
Times are hard and the dark clouds are gathering
Come on home, life is brief, and here's the main thing:
We'll save you a space, the only thing that's missing here, is your sweet face

Step inside it's cold out there, why do you want to be alone?
Sit down with us, everybody's here, as Dorothy said "there's no place like home"

We can all be number one, in each others hearts, at Christmas time, come together
Let's give each other one more chance, at Christmas time, wouldn't that be fine?May we never part, go on, make a wish
We all deserve a little lift this time of year, hey?

You are always number one, in my heart, at Christmas time, my darling,
I'm calling, I'm calling, Christmas is calling.......you
