Because It's Christmas

The snow is falling again

It looks a wonderland

But I'm stuck in traffic behind all these red lights

So I call you up and sigh

'Cause I forgot the pumpkin pie

You say, "It's all right, we'll still have a wonderful night"

Just take your time and slow it down

And let your heart hear the joyful sounds

Because it's Christmas

Love is filling the air

Because it's Christmas

The thrill of hope is everywhere

So let the music play

And let your worry melt away

Because it's Christmas

Back home the fire's bright

And the tree is full of lights

But the family's coming and there's so much work to be done

So you call me up and say

"Could you hurry on your way?"

I say, "Hold on, tonight will be so much fun"

Just take a breath, and say a prayer

And before you know it I'll be there

Because it's Christmas

Love is filling the air

Because it's Christmas

The thrill of hope is everywhere

So let the music play

And let your worry melt away

Because it's Christmas

And this world's so loud and busy

Sometimes we forget just why

We celebrate this time each year

And if you listen close the angels cry

The whole world sings the reason why

Because it's Christmas

Our savior's born tonight

It's Christmas

Fa-la-la-la

Christmas

Love is filling the air

Because it's Christmas

The thrill of hope is everywhere

So let the music play

'Cause Jesus Christ was born today

And it's Christmas

Oh, it's christmas

Yes, it's christmas

Oh, it's christmas
