Did you ever really start to cry
over something you just wrote
well, I'm writing you my dear St. nick
it's the saddest little note

is it fair come this Christmas eve
that I should be alone
when she knows how much I'm missing her
would you kindly bring her home.

this boy's letter to Santa Claus
it's gonna' tear him up
when he reads how much I'm missing her
it's gonna' tear him up

I'm sure if all his reindeers
could arrange room on his sleigh
then I'd receive a big bright package
and she'd be mine today

I'll be missing you come Christmas
wishing hard my dear
missing you come Christmas
wishing you were here

did you ever really start to cry
over something that was said
well, I'm writing you dear Santa
it's the saddest thing you ever read

is it fair come Christmas time
that I should be without you
you know how much I miss you girl
won't you kindly help me through

this boy's letter to Santa Claus
it's gonna' tear him up
when he reads how much I'm missing her
it's gonna tear him up

I'm sure he'll write a special note
to remind him Christmas eve
that he has to mend a broken heart
that believes in make believe

right above his vip we'll be
ranking number one
no sadder request will he receive
he'll know it has to be done

hey Santa, if you're my friend
please take heed, it's not pretend

this boy's letter to Santa Claus
it's gonna' tear him up
when he reads how much I'm missing her
it's gonna tear him up
