	I'm not trying to get anywhere. I'm not trying to go anywhere. But if I want something for Christmas this year, it's just to be right here. I'm not trying to get anything. I'm not trying to get any special thing. But if you insist to bring me something this year, bring something we can share. I'm not trying to be a man. I'm not even trying to do what I can. But if I have a plan for Christmas this year, it's to dry up all your tears. It's been an awfully rough year. Please don't give me anything. Please just tell me that you love me. Please come to my home for Christmas, and bring songs we can sing. I don't need the snow to fall. I don't need candy or toys at all. All I want is to sing with you with cheer, and to have a happier new you. Let's have a better new year.
