Lyrics

Verse 1:
Two little hands reaching out of his sleeves
As he?s tucked into bed on this Christmas Eve
The look of excitement and gleam in his eyes
He knows this night will be special but he doesn?t know why

Chorus:
My childhood memories
Are gathered ?round this tree
And through that young boy?s eyes I?m travelling fast
To the love of Christmas past.

Verse 2:
Two little feet on the stairs last night
Making sure Santa had made it alright
Listening for sleigh bells and hearing strange sounds
And looking for footprints on the snow-covered ground

Chorus:
My childhood memories
Are gathered ?round this tree
And through that young boy?s eyes I?m travelling fast
To the love of Christmas past.

Verse 3:
A two-year-old?s face on Christmas morn
Is bright as his momma?s on the day he was born
All the gifts in the world, I promise you this
Will never compare to the gift that he is

Chorus:
My childhood memories
Are gathered ?round this tree
And through that young boy?s eyes I?m travelling fast
To the love of Christmas past.

Tag:
Through that young boy?s eyes I?m finally back
With the love of Christmas past.
