Never cared about Christmas
I'd rather it was July
Always looking at Kris Kringle
As just another creepy guy
Too much holiday spirit
Got everybody else stumbling round
Never been much for the Yuletide cheer
But something's coming over me now

Over me now, now, now
Over me now

Never cared about Christmas
Was Santa Claus to Scrooge
Somehow that green and red
It just left me feeling blue
I always stayed ten feet from the mistletoe
But now it's all brand new
Because on Christmas Day
I'll be waking up with you

Never cared about Christmas
Hanging toys in a sock
I'd rather listen to Jimi Hendrix, baby
Than the Jingle Bell Rock
All the time wrapping presents
Just to tear 'em in the blink of an eye
But I can't stop smiling at the Christmas lights
I think I know the reason why

It's you and I, I, I
It's you and I

Never cared about Christmas
Was Santa Claus to Scrooge
Somehow that green and red
It just left me feeling blue
I always stayed ten feet from the mistletoe
But now it's all brand new
Because on Christmas Day
I'll be waking up with you

I always stayed ten feet from the mistletoe
But now it's all brand new
Because on Christmas Day
I'll be waking up with you
With you, with you, whoa-oh-oh-oh

Never cared about Christmas
Was Santa Claus to Scrooge
Somehow that green and red
It just left me feeling blue
I always stayed ten feet from the mistletoe
But now it's all brand new
Because on Christmas Day
I'll be waking up
Because on Christmas Day
I'll be waking up
Oh baby, Christmas Day
I'll be waking up with you
