CHRISTMAS KISSES
(Bill D. Johnson)

Marty Robbins - 1967



Christmas time is almost here
And you're not here with me
Smilin' shoppers everywhere
I'm lonely as can be

Oh, but I'll be home in two more days
It's you that my heart misses
Please meet me dear at eight pm
And bring your Christmas kisses

Mistletoe is everywhere
But darlin' I'll be true
I can't kiss somebody's lips
Unless that someone's you

I've longed each day to hold you tight
I know what loneliness is
But I'll be home in two more days
Then share your Christmas kisses

This letter that I'm writing you
Brings teardrops to my eyes
But they're tears of happiness
Because I realise

I'm closer to the one I love
With each hour that passes
I'll see you soon and don't be late
And bring your Christmas kisses

Soon these lonely days will end
That we've spent apart
This holiday I'll hold you close
As well as in my heart

I'll close for now this letter filled
With all my love and wishes
I'll see you dear in two more days
And share your Christmas kisses
I'll see you dear in two more days
And share your Christmas kisses
