This Year

Ooh, oh, yeah yeah

You'll be my New's Year Day, my valentine
Now, I ain't gonna stop until I make you mine
You'll be my April Fool, my Mardi Gras
The music on my tongue, when I sing, "Fa la la"

You'll be my flower child in the month of May
My sunny summer love on my holiday
You'll be my autumn leaves, my Halloween
The winter snow and everything that's in between

This year, I'm gonna take you home
This year, I don't wanna be alone
This year, this Christmas, together
And the minutes they pass, and the hours, they fly
This year, this Christmas, forever
And the weeks and the months go rushing by
This year we have learned how to live
How to forget, and how to forgive without fear
Just love this Christmas, this year

You'll be my spring ahead, my fall behind
The shimmy in my hips, oh, when I bump and grind
You'll be my Santa Boy, all dressed in red
And ride that little reindeer all through my head

Here we go, oh yeah

This year, I'm gonna take you home
This year, I don't wanna be alone
This year, this Christmas, together
And the minutes they pass, and the hours they fly
This year, this Christmas, forever
And the weeks and the months go rushing by
This year we have learned how to live
How to forget, and how to forgive without fear
Just love this Christmas, this year

This year I pray for you, uh
And I think of you
Mm, just wanna be with you
This year that's all I wanna do
Day by day, I'm gonna get my way
This year I pray for you
Seasons turn, I've got a lot to learn
And I thank God for you

Now, this year I'm gonna, gonna, gonna take you home
'Cause I don't want to be alone
This year, this Christmas, together
And the minutes they pass, and the hours they fly
This year, this Christmas, forever
And the weeks and that months go rushing by
Now this year we have learned how to live
How to forget, and how to forgive without fear
Just love
This year we have learned how to live
How to forget and how to forgive without fear
Just love this Christmas, this year
