Lights

There's something about the season
We all try our best
Hang those lights outside your house
Count the ways you're blessed
Meet up with some old friends
Talk about the year
It's cold at night but warm inside
Christmas time is here

Christmas time, Christmas time
The smile of a baby looking in his mother's eyes
She lays him in the soft straw and we're all shining bright
Watching while the world is born, this is Christmas time

If you know the ground, you will know the grass
Streaming out the window as the miles roll past
We took that trip years ago; it wouldn't be the last
You'd be my friend until the end but the days went by so fast

Christmas time, Christmas time
The smile of a baby looking in his mother's eyes
She lays him in the soft straw and we're all shining bright
Watching while the world is born, this is Christmas time

If you know the water, you will find the shore
The light there in the distance is one you felt before
There's a house there with so many rooms, each is safe and warm
And everyone you've ever loved opening the door

Christmas time, Christmas time
The smile of a baby looking in his mother's eyes
She lays him in the soft straw and we're all shining bright
Watching while the world is born, this is Christmas time

There's something about the season
We all try our best
Hang those lights outside your house
Count the ways you're blessed
