He can feel his arms around her this December Even though she's gone a million miles away But they're the product of a senseless situation That's keeping him from home this holiday But there's a letter on his bed that he can hardly wait to read He studies every word it says Yeah it helps him fall asleep It says Merry Christmas, I hope you get this Please don't send me any packages with a bow Because the only gift I want this year is for you to make it safely here I hope you know I'm wishing on a star Oh, wherever you are She can feel her arms around her by the fireplace Like when he was there so many months ago But they're a product of a senseless situation That's keeping him so far away from home But there's a letter on the countertop she can hardly wait to read She tears up as she opens it and nearly falls down on her knees It says Merry Christmas, I hope you get this Please don't send me any packages with a bow Because the only gift I want is to make it safely home to you I hope you know I'm wishing on a star Oh, wherever you are Wherever you are Wherever you are Wherever you are Merry Christmas, I hope you get this Please don't send me any packages with a bow Because the only gift I want this year is for you to make it safely here I hope you know I'm wishing on a star I hope you know I'm wishing on a star I hope you know I'm wishing on a star Wherever you are Wherever you are
