Lyrics
Merry Christmas Time
© 2020 John Covert and Mae (Betty) Overstreet
Snow flakes falling gently, they don't make a sound
Children making snowmen, angels on the ground
Lifting faces catching snowflakes softly on their tongues
smelling homemade cookies grandma baked with love
chorus
chestnuts roasting in the fire we sit and reminisce
Wrapping all the gifts-- for loved ones on our list
sit around a cozy fire--hear the Church bells chime
don't you wish each day could be-- Merry Christmas time!
INSTRUMENTAL
The sun is peeking through the clouds, melts the pure white snow
moms and dads are shopping , faces all aglow
Happiness is all around, magic in the air
children singing church bells ringing, love is everywhere
chorus
chestnuts roasting in the fire we sit and reminisce
Wrapping all the gifts, for loved ones on our list
sit around a cozy fire, hear the Church bells chime
don't you wish each day could be- Merry Christmas time!
chestnuts roasting in the fire we sit and reminisce
Wrapping all the gifts, for loved ones on our list
sit around a cozy fire, hear the Church bells chime
don't you wish each day could be- Merry Christmas time!
