Story Behind The Song
Originally a uptempo pop-punk song that described the WAY less than perfect world contrasted with Christmastime. We decided the hook was good enough to revisit. So, we changed the verse lyrics and turned the song into simply a mellow pop song.

Lyrics
At Christmastime
C) 1999 & 2007 R/T Hammond (HAMFAM Music, ASCAP)
Chorus:
Why don't we act like we do at Christmas time?
1st vrs:
Toys and games and children's wishes. Spending time with family and friends.
Giving gifts of love and kindness. Helping folks we never met.
**Repeat Chorus
2nd vrs:
Snowy streets and sleighs and horses. Rosey cheeks all singing carols.
Candy cane's the good shepherds crook. Sharing the love of Emmanuel.
**Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Every day can be just like Christmas time.
The light of the world has come and lit the path of life.
**Repeat Chorus
