......They wanted to use "Christmas(Baby, Please Come Home)" for the movie, but I told them I didn't wanna do it. I was sick of making money for Phil Spector. So they called Miami Steve from the E Street Band and got him to write and produce a new song instead. It should just like Spector, but that was deliberate.
いいように使われ，フィル・スペクターに只働きさせられた恨みを後年も抱き続けたラブの言葉が，本ライナーに載っている。
The cold wind is blowin' and the streets are getting dark
I'm writing you a letter and I don't know where to start
The bells will be ringing Saint John the Divine
I get a little lonely every year around this time
The music plays all night in Little Italy
The lights will be going up on old Rockefella's tree
People window shopping on Fifth Avenue
All I want for Christmas is you
(Tell me) I've got to know
Where do lonely hearts go
Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
Things are different since you've been here last
Childhood dreaming is a thing of the past
Maybe you can bring us some hope this year
Visions of sugar plums have disappeared
Do you remember sleigh riding in the snow
And dancing all night to "Baby, Please Come Home"
Today's celebration is bittersweet
There's mothers and children in the street
(Tell me) I've got to know
Where do lonely hearts go
Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
I'm all grown up but I'm the same you'll see
I'm writing this letter 'cause I still believe
Dear Santa I've been good this year
Can't you stay a little while with me right here
(Tell me) I've got to know
Where do lonely hearts go
Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
