All I want For Christmas Is A Cuddle

All I Want for Christmas is a Cuddle by Adrienne Tinn

(On Zoom we asked our little three year old great-granddaughter, Lottie, what she’d like for Christmas. Her reply was, “a cuddle.”)


All I want for Christmas is a cuddle.
I really don’t want any more than that.
You can keep your books and tokens
and your posh plush coats
and your warm and fluffy cosy knitted hat.

All I want for Christmas is a cuddle.
I want to hear you knocking at my door.
I don’t need trees or tinsel
or a chocolate box.
I just want you coming to my house once more.

All I want for Christmas is a cuddle.
I want to see your lovely smiling face.
I wish to be with family,
to see you gathered round,
to talk and laugh together at my place.

All I want for Christmas is a cuddle.
With all that’s going on it’s made me see
that in our lives what is important
never can be bought.
And a cuddle from your family is free.

Always a cuddle here for you @shiney with extra cuddles also available for your good lady

 

What I want for Christmas I can never have, but I still have the memories and the love......and will always be married to her, but will have to forgo the cuddle.

 

Thanks folks

 

It was written by my sister.

Quite a lot of you know her from when we have the garden open. She and her hubby are the folk singers and she has a number of published poetry books.

 

Just to add to the info in post 1 - the older great grand child, 5 years old, asked for toys . The three year old didn't ask for anything at all but immediately said "Hugs".
