Still Can’t Sleep On Christmas Eve

It's the 24th of December The time when I'm a kid again For as long as I remember I've looked forward to this day throughout the year Snow is falling all around us Like our own wide world inside a globe Snowman in the yard, hot chocolate on the stove And everywhere the Christmas lights are glowing It's Christmas time, it's magical I come alive, it's factual I still can't sleep on Christmas Eve We bundle up, the air is frosty We gather family and friends Singing carols by the fire, there's laughter in the air I never, ever want this night to end Soon the clock will strike midnight We're full of candy canes and kettle corn Let's get the children into bed, find some mistletoe That will keep us busy 'til the morning It's Christmas time, it's magical I come alive, it's factual I still can't sleep on Christmas Eve Gingerbread, jingle bells, Santa, and cinnamon Reindeer on the roof, I can't get enough of it Presents under the Christmas tree How could I ever sleep? Yes, it's Christmas time, it's magical I come alive, it's factual I still can't sleep on Christmas It's Christmas time, eyes open wide I feel like I'm eight years old inside I still can't sleep on Christmas Eve I still can't sleep on Christmas Eve
