Ooh-ooh, yeah
Snow is falling all around us
My baby's coming home for Christmas
I've been up all night inside my bedroom
He said that he'll be with me real soon
So I wait and I wait
But I've had as much as I can take
'Cause I got five more nights of sleeping on my own
Four more days until you're coming home
Three more dreams of you and mistletoe
Two more reasons why I love you so
I got five more nights until you're next to me
Four more days of being lonely
Three more wishes, I can barely breathe
If I can make it to Christmas Eve
Then it's one more sleep
One more sleep until it's Christmas
One more sleep
Can't believe how much I missed us
One more sleep
One more sleep until it's Christmas
One more sleep, yeah
Now I don't think I can remember
A cold or lonelier December
And I find myself staring at the window
Wondering when you're gonna get back home
So I try (try)
And I try (try)
But there is nothing I can do to pass this time
I got five more nights, still sleeping on my own
Four more days until you're coming home
Three more dreams of you and mistletoe
Two more reasons why I love you so
I got five more nights until you're next to me
Four more days of being lonely
Three more wishes, I can barely breathe
If I can make it to Christmas Eve
Then it's one more sleep
One more sleep until it's Christmas
One more sleep
Can't believe how much I missed us
One more sleep, yeah
One more sleep until it's Christmas
One more sleep, oh
Until we're rocking 'round the Christmas tree
Until I got you sitting next to me
We got a lot of catching up to do
I just can't take this, I'm missing you
Five more nights on my own
Four more days, mhm
Three more dreams, mistletoe
I can't believe I ever let you go, yeah
Five more nights of sleeping on my own (on my own)
Four more days until you're coming home (until you're coming home)
Three more wishes, I can barely breathe
If I can make it to Christmas Eve (if I can make it)
Then it's one more sleep
It'll be one more, it'll be one more
One more sleep
It'll be one more
One more sleep
Yeah, yeah
One more sleep, yeah, oh
