Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a candle in the window
There's a legend we believe
Santa, hears our plea
You can bet that he, wouldn't miss a
Christmas Eve
[Verse 2]
There's a stocking on the fireplace
There are presents to receive
And there's mistletoe, where is Romeo?
Steals a kiss on Christmas Eve
In the corner on a table
Underneath a shining star
Is the holy Christmas stable
And three wise men from afar
[Verse 3]
All this holiday contemptment
All this love should never leave
We'd be doing right if we made each night
More like Christmas Eve
[Verse 4]
In the corner on a table
Underneath a shining star
Is the holy Christmas stable
And three wise men from afar
[Verse 5]
All this holiday contemptment
All this love should never leave
We'd be doing right if we made each night
More like Christmas Eve
