Lyrics
CHRISTMAS LIGHTS AND CANDY CANES, ALL AROUND THE TOWN, TURN IT TO A MAGIC FAIRYLAND, FROM THE CHRISTMAS SKY SNOWFLAKES FALLNG GENTLY TO THE GROUND. PEOPLE RUSHING HERE AND THERE NOT KNOWING WHERE TO GO, STOPPING NOW AND THEN TO SAY HELLO, 'TILL THE FINAL PRESENT ON THEIR SHOPPING LIST AT LAST IS FOUND.(CHORUS)I REMEMBER SIMPLER TIMES WHEN MY HEART WAS YOUNG, IN MY MIND IT SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY. TRUNDLING OFF TO BED WHEN ALL THE CAROLS HAD BEEN SUNG, DREAMING OF THE FUN, WE'D HAVE ON CHRISTMAS DAY. (V2)WE'VE MADE OURSELVES SO BUSY THAT WE'VE FORGOTTEN, WHAT WE'RE CELEBRATING AFTER ALL; WE OVERLOOK THE VERY THING WE SHOULD REMEMBER. IT'S ALL ABOUT A FATHER'S LOVE -WHO GAVE HIS VERY BEST,ON THAT WINTER NIGHT SO LONG AGO; AND THE MEANING OF THE SEASON'S MORE THAT JUST DECEMBER.(CHORUS 2)I REMEMBER SIMIPLER TIMES, WHEN MY HEART WAS YOUNG,IN MY MIND IT SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY.DAD WOULD READ US STORIES OF A BABY IN A MANGER, BORN MANY YEARS AGO, SO MANY MILES AWAY. IN CLOSING LET ME SAY, MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU.
