The fireplace is burning bright shining along me   I see the presents underneath the good old Christmas tree   And I wait all night ’til Santa comes to wake me from my dreams   Oh why? ’Cause that’s Christmas to me   I see the children play outside like angels in the snow   While mom and daddy share a kiss under the mistletoe   And we’ll cherish all these simple things wherever we may be   Oh why? ’Cause that’s Christmas to me   I’ve got this Christmas song in my heart    I’ve got the candles glowing in the dark                                                  ()       I’m hanging all the stockings by the Christmas tree   Oh why? ’Cause that’s Christmas to me   Oh why? ’Cause that’s Christmas to me   I listen for the thud of raindeer walking on the roof   As I fall asleep to lullabies the morning’s coming soon   The only gift I’ll ever need is the joy of family   Oh why? ’Cause that’s Christmas to me   I’ve got this Christmas song in my heart    I’ve got the candles glowing in the dark                                                  ( )       I’m hanging all the stockings by the Christmas tree   Oh why? ’Cause that’s Christmas to me   Oh why? ’Cause that’s Christmas to me   Ooooohhhhoooohhooohhh   Ooooohhhhoooohhooohhh                                                  ( )       Oh the joy that fills our hearts and makes us see   Oh why?
