LYRICS
I hear winter is callin’
Outside snow may be fallin’
We’ll stay warm by the fire inside
Whoa whoa oh
We’ll be happy together
Friends make everything better
And we know how to do this right
Together we’ll make the season bright
‘Cuz oh
Christmas is a time for cheer
So everybody gather near
And lift your voice for all to hear
‘Cuz it’s the merriest time of the year
And Christmas is a time for love
You know the world can never have enough
So come and sing along with us
And have a very merry Christmas
A very merry Christmas
Deck the halls with the holly,
Let’s be joyful and jolly,
You can put on a Santa hat
Ho ho ho ho ho
Play that Bing and Sinatra
It’s not Christmas without ya
Your songs welcome the season back
And this is where all the fun is at
‘Cuz oh
Christmas is a time for cheer (Sing it with us)
So everybody gather near (Merry Christmas)
And lift your voice for all to hear
‘Cuz it’s the merriest time of the year (Merry Christmas)
And Christmas is a time for love (Sing it with us)
You know the world can never have enough (Merry Christmas)
So come and sing along with us (Sing with us)
And have a very merry Christmas
A very merry Christmas
Let’s enjoy these moments while they last
Everybody knows life goes time so fast
Let the music play
So we can share some joy today
Hey, hey
‘Cuz oh
Christmas is a time for cheer
So everybody gather near
And lift your voice for all to hear
‘Cuz it’s the merriest time of the year
And Christmas is a time for love
You know the world can never have enough
So come and sing along with us
And have a very merry Christmas
A very merry Christmas
Fa la la la la la la….
