Rick Springfield - Christmas With You Lyrics






This night, Christmas seems so far away
Somewhere, are you missing me?
I'm wishing and watching
A star and I pray
To live in a world where we all can be free

I'd fly straight to your arms
And never more roam
My spirit is aching,
I want to come home... to you

So I pray to heaven sweet mother and child
That my only wish will come true
I'd give anything just to see you again
And to have this Christmas With You

Here in the distance
Does God hear me say?
Carry me home to you
The world that I love
Is so far away
And you know my heart is true

The road that I traveled
That led me to here
Will lead me back home
And lay me down near....to you

So I pray to heaven sweet mother and child
That my only wish will come true
I'd give anything just to see you again
And to have this Christmas With You

To spend this Christmas with you
I want this Christmas with you

Rick Springfield Christmas With You Comments
  1. M.... M....

    this song will hit home with all the holidays after my Mother in Law just passed on 4/10/19. See you on Sept 7th, Dayton fans are happy you come back to the area every year!! Took my childhood/highschool BFF to the show at Hobart a few months ago, it was a blast!!!

  2. C.... J....

    And sooo many people thought all he could do was act on a soap!

  3. y.... k....

    I'll be damned! I didn't know this song even though I'm a fan of Rick's. I feel so shame.

  4. j.... ....

    Almost 10 Years later.. and we still have our best out their... BRING THEM HOME

  5. S.... S....

    Nothing like Rick's voice. He can sing anything and it sounds awesome.. I SERIOUSLY need to get this album.

  6. P.... W....

    I love that song it is beautiful and it makes u think about the love one u have lost or lost and u miss them and u want them to come home to you thank you rick for thinking about that it is very different then any other songs u singed

  7. S.... F....

    Was this ever released to be played on the radio?  I know about it because I am a Rick fan.  But I have NEVER heard it on the radio.  Just wondering!

    S.... F....

    +Sandy Forester That's the modern story of music - almost impossible to get airplay unless they fit a certain criteria

  8. R.... L....

    Thanks Rick, I thought of this song today, and it was my mantra, but with the lyric...New Years with you... when I walked at Surf Beach, California today. My Dad's ashes were spread there in the Ocean close to New Years one January. He served this country for nearly 30 years in the Airforce. Blessings to you and your family. peace.

  9. A.... B....

    Beautiful song
    Beautiful man
    Wonderful voice

  10. T.... Z....

    Thank You Rick Springfield! Have been a fan of yours for years and years. This song covers our Military as well as the loss of a loved one.. Thank you! Thank you!

  16. E.... G....

  17. S.... V....

    For those of us who are separated from our soldiers this time of year, this song is extra special! And to the families represented in this video, THANK YOU for your sacrifice!! And Rick, again, you have written another amazing song from your heart! Thank you!

  18. K.... C....

    What a beautiful and perfect tribute. Well done.

  19. D.... C....

    that's Doug Davidson's daughter playing the violin..

  20. m.... ....

    The violinist that appears in this video and on the sound track is Calyssa Rae Davidson, the daughter of one of Rick's best friends Doug Davidson (Paul on Y&R). WOW! what a beautifully talented young lady! I love the song too Rick!

  21. s.... ....

    Rick has made this song so beautiful and real. To close your eyes and listen. God bless to all our troops.Come home soon

  22. R.... D....

    this is one of the many reasons Rick is my hero and has been most of my life, he's real, i am so honored to have met him, and shook his hand

  23. s.... ....

    He is a total class act. He can't do anything wrong in my eyes. i am buying this!

    This song is so wonderful. I read your book, and Elvis forgives you. Leaving a dog is heartbreaking. I think you have made up for it in many ways.

  27. j.... ....

    The best Christmas song ever !

  30. K.... S....

    Ty! All of my troops, men and women that I worry about daily are all safe on US soil except one that I need to check the status on. I have no guarantees for Christmas for at least 4 years as my nephew takes a long tour, unless he is stateside between posts during Dec of 2011.

    I cry tears of sadness for those that gave the ultimate sacrifice and tears of joy for each completed tour by those I love. Lots of tears this week/month as so many come home!

    PS:Uz si pocul novy Springfieldov album Venus in Overdrive?Podla mna je super.Ten clovek je ako vino,cim starsi,tym lepsi.

  51. a.... ....

    S tym suhlasim,ale inak si mohol odpisat aj v rodnom jazyku, ja by som rozumela. :-)
    PS: Vcera mal Rick Springfield narodky - 59!
    Happy Birthday to Rick Springfield!!!!

  52. a.... ....

    Realy?It`s great cause I come from there!Although Czechoslovakia doesn`t exist any more.CS separated into two absolutely independent states.:Slovakia and Czech republic 15 years ago.Wow the years flash by..Anyway I live in Slovakia now and I absolutely luv Rick Springfield`s music.His the latest CD Venus in Overdrive is awesome!

  53. a.... ....

    Oh, yeah! The CD is awesome! I luv it!

  54. M.... ....

    I can see I'm going to be spending a small fortune on his website within the next couple weeks.
    Nicely done, Rick!

  55. K.... D....

    This song was not meant to be political; it was intended as a tribute. It's heartfelt and beautiful. Just get your ego out of the way and listen to it...

  56. F.... -....

    Better being an innocent coward than a murdering marionette! Actually it is absolutely not brave just to follow orders and pretending being not responsible. Wake up, machine!

  58. j.... ....

    The war on Iraqis is being waged by theocrats and fascistic terrorists. US forces are currently in Iraq at the REQUEST of the DEMOCRATICALLY elected Government of Iraq, to help PROTECT the Iraqi people from the terrorists who routinely target masses of innocent civilians.

    You might not care what the Iraqi people want, but you should learn about the reasons US forces remain in Iraq before you post.

  59. F.... -....

    i´m sorry for you having your sons down there, but woudn´t it be better supporting them by taking them home, out of non-american iraq? supporting them leaving the army?

  60. F.... -....

    leave iraq and al the other foreign countries, american warfighters. stay at home and fall ashame of killing millions of people.
    fall ashame mr. springfield!
    i love you for centuries, but i totally diaagree with this your opinion about the iraq war!

  61. S.... M....

    This is my more favourite christmas so in the world. I love Rick Springfield's music!!

  62. K.... ....

    This is an absolutely beautiful song and video. The picture of the handsome guy in the top left hand corner at 2:24 is a dear friend that was killed last year...to see his picture in this video and know he is remembered in such a big way is amazing! My husband is also a Marine and gone for Christmas again, he's on his 3rd deployment, knowing that our troops are remembered and honored like this is one of the best things someone could do! Thank you Rick Springfield!

  63. �.... D....

    great video rick.!!!

  64. L.... E....

    Rick... as an "old" fan and a mother of a Stryker/Infantry Soldier that spent 16 months in Iraq and made it home, from my heart, I thank you for this song. Thank you for caring for our Military and their families! Merry Christmas!

  65. R.... ....

    Thanks Rick!! I wish more artists would band together (no pun intended) and support all of our service personnel that were killed wounded ar are still serving and cannot be home with their families.

    Remember, only 2 people have died for you, one was Jesus Christ, and the other is an American soldier.

    My cousin 1st Lt. Rob Seidel III is in this video at 41 42 and 43 seconds.

  66. l.... ....

    Gosh this is just amazing...

  67. a.... ....

    Oh,no!Your kids are too young,so you cannot be old.I like the old music so much,it doesn`t depend on kind of music.Also some kind of the current music,for ex. Take That(former boyband,now they all are adult and good looking men between 35-40,they make better music then before).

  68. C.... D....

    Wow! I feel old! LOL
    Seriously, though, it's great to know that Rick's music appeals to fans of all ages. My kids are 3 and 7 and they love him too. Although, I admit, I had a little to do with that...lol
