The fireplace is burning bright, shining along me
 I see the presents underneath the good old Christmas tree
 And I wait all night 'til [bad word] to wake me from my dreams
 Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me

 I see the children play outside, like angels in the snow
 While mom and daddy share a kiss under the mistletoe
 And we'll cherish all these simple things wherever we may be
 Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me

 I've got this Christmas song in my heart 
 I've got the candles glowing in the dark
 I'm hanging all the stockings by the Christmas tree
 Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me
 Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me

 I listen for the thud of raindeer walking on the roof
 As I fall asleep to lullabies, the [bad word] soon
 The only gift I'll ever need is the joy of family
 Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me

 I've got this Christmas song in my heart (song in my heart)
 I've got the candles glowing in the dark
 I'm hanging all the stockings by the Christmas tree
 Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me
 Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me

 Ooooohhhhoooohhooohhh
 Ooooohhhhoooohhooohhh

 Oh, the joy that fills our hearts and makes us see
 Oh, why? Cause that's Christmas to me

 I've got this Christmas song in my heart 
 I've got the candles glowing in the dark
 And then for years [bad word] we'll always know one thing
 That's the love that Christmas can bring
 Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me
