THE STOCKINGS STILL HANG ON THE MANTLE
THERES PRESENTS STILL UNDER THE TREE
HEARTS FILLED WITH ANTICIPATION
WITH ALL THAT TOMORROW MIGHT BRING
YOU CANT HELP BUT GET IN THE SPIRIT
NO MATTER HOW OLD YOU MIGHT BE
CAUSE WE ALL FIND ONE THING TO BELIEVE IN
TOGETHER ON CHRISTMAS EVE
LIFE SLOWS DOWN FOR JUST ONE NITE
EVERYBODY GETS ALONG
EVERYBODY SINGS ALONG
THE WORLD FINDS PEACE AND HARMONY
IF ONLY EVERYDAY COULD BE
MORE LIKE CHRISTMAS EVE
KIDS ARE ALL HIGH ON HOT CHOCOLATE
AND ALL OF THE SHOPPING IS DONE
OLD FRIENDS STOP BY WITH A BOTTLE OF WINE
AND TOAST TO THE GOOD THINGS TO COME
LIFE SLOWS DOWN FOR JUST ONE NITE
EVERYBODY GETS ALONG
EVERYBODY SINGS ALONG
THE WORLD FINDS PEACE AND HARMONY
IF ONLY EVERYDAY COULD BE
MORE LIKE CHRISTMAS EVE
SO LETS CHANGE EVERY DAY ON THE CALENDAR PAGE
TO READ DECEMBER TWENTY FOUR
AND KEEP THE DECORATIONS UP ALL YEAR ROUND
AND PRAY A LITTLE MORE, THAT
LIFE SLOWS DOWN FOR JUST ONE NITE
EVERYBODY GETS ALONG
EVERYBODY SINGS ALONG
THE WORLD FINDS PEACE AND HARMONY
IF ONLY EVERYDAY COULD BE
MORE LIKE CHRISTMAS EVE
