What Christmas Is To Me Lyrics

It comes around just once a year
The season's changed, but I'm still here
And I'm waiting on a friend to come back home

The neighbors got their house and lights
The tree is shining oh-so-bright
But that star, they must have brought down from the sky

Every year, the town gets snow for Christmas
But all that's only part of what Christmas is to me

It's my sister on the telephone
Dad's asleep before the guests go home
And Grandma's in the kitchen all day
Mom's complaining that the house is cold
My uncle's had more than he can hold
And I'm just sitting on the couch
Hoping that the home team can win
You see, that's what Christmas is to me

Santa's sleigh is on its way
We got cookies and milk waiting on a tray
And the family's gathered watching "It's a Wonderful Life"

I take a look around and think to myself
"I wouldn't wanna be anywhere else"
It's Christmas time, and I know it's a wonderful life

But, every year, the town gets snow for Christmas
But all that's only part of what Christmas is to me It's my sister on the telephone
Dad's asleep before the guests go home
And Grandma's in the kitchen all day
Mom's complaining that the house is cold
My uncle's had more than he can hold
And I'm just sitting on the couch
Hoping that the home team can win
You see, that's what Christmas is

You see, it's all about the yuletide cheer
That brings us together here
For the holidays

Let's not let this Christmas pass
Without making this feeling last
Throughout the year

Too much trash for the can to hold
Another Christmas story told
And I can't wait until we tell it again next year

It's my sister on the telephone
Dad's asleep before the guests go home
And Grandma's baking in the kitchen all day
Now, Mom's complaining that the house is cold
My uncle's had more than he can hold
And I'm just sitting on the couch
Hoping that the home team can win
You see, that's what Christmas is
That's what Christmas is to me
