Bobby Vinton — Dearest Santa

Would you listen and lend an ear 'Cause I only come around once a year? And this is for a very special cause My name is Santa Claus One Christmas Eve, I visited a home Where children lived who've no home of their own And though I brought them gifts galore This is what one asked me for... "Dearest Santa, I don't want toys Or choo-choo trains with lots of noise I want a home like other boys Christmas day "Dearest Santa, I will be Just as good as I can be If you'll give me a family Christmas day "I'm so lonesome, I'm so blue Is there somethin' you can do? oh... "Please, dear Santa, don't ignore This little boy who's begging for A mother whom he'll just adore Christmas day "I would be so proud and glad If I could just say, 'Meet my dad,' so... "Please, dear Santa, heed my quest And tell them I'll behave my best That if they'd take me, they'll be blessed Christmas day."
