christmas time lyrics

When I was young every Christmas eve
I could not sleep
Tryin' to catch that old St. Nick
Leavin' presents under my tree
And every year I'd fall asleep layin' in my bed
Dreamin' of a million sugar plums
Dancin' in my head

Oh how much joy it is at Christmas time
Spirit of giving is in our lives
Oh, oh how much joy it brings to see the one you love
This year's gonna be the best Christmas because

There'll be family and Christmas cheer
Peace and goodwill to all men
Everybody is home for Christmas
Everybody is home
Sneaking a kiss under the mistletoe
I want a white Christmas so let it snow
Everybody is home for Christmas
Everybody is home this Christmas time

Friends come together as we decorate the tree
This is the time of year to live in harmony
Angels watch over as we put the kids to sleep
And when they awake their smilin' faces
Make it all complete, oh

This is the holiday you're with the family
Put aside our differences and let it be
Oh, oh how much fun it is to give and to receive
This time of year, love is all we need, ohh

There'll be family and Christmas cheer
Peace and goodwill to all men
Everybody is home for Christmas
Everybody is home
Sneakin' a kiss under the mistletoe
I want a white Christmas so let it snow
Everybody is home for Christmas
Everybody is home it's Christmas time
It's Christmas time

Open your heart now
This is the time for us to give
The world needs love now
So live and let live, families all here
The spirit is good cheer, the sound of carolers
Ringing sweet in my ear, everything is all fine
You know why, it's Christmas time, what

Oh how much joy it is, at Christmas time
Spirit of giving is in our lives
Oh, oh how much joy it brings to see the ones you love
This year's gonna be the best Christmas because

There'll be family and Christmas cheer
Peace and goodwill to all men
Everybody is home for Christmas
Everybody is home
Sneakin' a kiss under the mistletoe
I want a white Christmas so let it snow
Everybody is home for Christmas
Everybody is home it's Christmas time

There'll be family and Christmas cheer
Peace and goodwill to all men
Everybody is home for Christmas
Everybody is home
Sneaking a kiss under the mistletoe
I want a white Christmas so let it snow
Everybody is home for Christmas
Everybody is home it's Christmas time

There'll be family and Christmas cheer
Peace and goodwill to all men
Everybody is home for Christmas
Everybody is home
Sneaking a kiss under the mistletoe
I want a white Christmas so let it snow
Everybody is home for Christmas
Everybody is home it's Christmas time
