Every Year, Every Christmas Lyrics - This Is Christmas - Luther Vandross

I don't know how love could do this to me 

I've waited and waited for someone I never see 

But I'm so sentimental and I'm so hopeful you'll be here 

So here I am every year, every Christmas 

(yeah) 

I've wished for you in my heart and in my head 

And I got my answer that first moment that we met 

And, oh yes, I believed you as you told me, as you said 

You'd be here every year, every Christmas

There must be a lesson for me to learn 

If you don't trust in love, you'll get nothing in return 

Why should I be lonely? Don't tell me it's fine 

I have my pride, but I'd rather be with you tonight 

So much emotion, it's driving me mad (yeah, yeah) 

But I'll take my chances with these feelings that I have 

And I'll come back to this same corner where we met 

And I'll be here every year, every Christmas 

Mere words can't explain the pain and the fear 

'Cause I wonder, yes I wonder are you gonna leave me standing here? 

Today's almost over but I don't wanna leave 

Has my heart made a fool out of me? (ohhh)

My friends gather 'round me with holiday cheer (yeah)

Well, I can't keep explaining what they'll never understand 

And why I'm here every year, every Christmas 

I return every year, every Christmas 

I come here every year, every Christmas
