Lyrics
I Think To Christmas
[Verse 1]
Upstairs we look outside our window
The snow is softly falling there
The voices rise from down the stairway,
the sound of Christmas in the air.
[Pre-Chorus]
And the warmth of every year.
[Chorus]
Happy Christmas. Happy Christmas.
Every word that I can hear rings so dear
Happy Christmas. Happy Christmas
And I think to Christmas
[Verse 2]
Every time I see your soft face
Every time I see your smile
Time dissolves into the silence
Like snowflakes drifting for awhile
[Pre-Chorus]
And I think I lost you there
[Chorus]
Happy Christmas. Happy Christmas.
It's the sound of cheer that makes my heart sing
Happy Christmas. Happy Christmas.
And I think to Christmas.
[Bridge]
Whenever I hear the old songs play,
I think to Christmas, far away
Whenever I see the candlelight,
I feel those stars we watched at night
Whenever the snow begins to fall,
I hear your laughter down the hall
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
And I think to Christmas
I think to Christmas
[Outro - Chorus]
Happy Christmas. Happy Christmas.
And the thought of all those dreams so long ago
Happy Christmas. Happy Christmas.
And I think to Christmas
And a time so long ago
