I woke up Christmas morning
To find the garden filled with snow
I thought I'd make my wife a snowman
With button eyes and a carrot nose
But when she came to see it
It gave a shimmer as it came to life
He was charming and funny
'Til all of a sudden
He's leaving with my wife!
This Christmas
A snowman stole my wife
He came to life in the morning
And they were gone
'Til the end of the night
This Christmas
A snowman stole my wife
But the joke's on him
It's the best day of my life
No more getting told off
For never wrapping presents right
I get to wear my Christmas jumper
The one you say's too tight (too tight!)
No more missing Die Hard
While you have your Christmas pout
No more driving round the country
Your Granny never liked me
My in-laws smell like sprouts!
This Christmas
A snowman stole my wife
He came to life in the morning
And they were gone
'Til the end of the night
This Christmas
A snowman stole my wife
But the joke's on him
It's the best day of my life
I can do all my shopping online
Decorate the tree as I like
I'll eat all the chocolates
It's Christmas all the time
Yeeeah!
Late on in the evening
And I feel those festive blues
No-one to fill my empty stocking
No-one to share
My Christmas snooze
When I hear the doorbell
My heart leaps out my chest
The snowman defrosted
You tell me you love me
And Christmas with me is the best!
This Christmas
A snowman stole my wife
He came to life in the morning
And they were gone
'Til the end of the night
This Christmas
A snowman stole my wife
But the joke's on him
It's the best day of my life
This Christmas
A snowman stole my wife
(A snowman stole my wife)
He came to life in the morning
And they were gone
'Til the end of the night
(Gone 'til the end of the night)
This Christmas
A snowman stole my wife
But the joke's on him
It's the best day of my... life

Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas
You know you're my favourite
Time of year
Feels so festive
When you're near
Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas
Making footsteps in the snow
In the fairy lights aglow
I can feel the magic in many things
You make the winter come to life
Help the Snowman learn to fly
Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas
May you never cease to come
Bringing joy to everyone
You fill me warmth
Just like a cocoa
My heart, it starts to flutter
Like a snow globe
If I'm Frankincense
Then you're Gold
There's Christmas Magic tonight
Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas
You bring the Carol singers to our door
We'll be crying out for more
Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas
Full of turkey by the fire
Let the reindeer now retire
You fill me warmth
Just like a cocoa
My heart, it starts to flutter
Like a snow globe
If I'm Frankincense
Then you're Gold
There's Christmas Magic tonight
Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas
It's the most
Magical time of the year
(Magic, magic)
Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas
It's the most
Magical time of the year
(Magic, magic)
(Magic, magic)
(Magic, magic)
Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas
Waking at the break of dawn
Opening presents in the morning
Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas
We'll be skating in the park
Playing games 'til after dark
I can feel the magic in many things
You make the winter come to life
Keep the Yule log burning bright
Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas
May you never cease to come
Bringing joy to everyone
You fill me warmth
Just like a cocoa
My heart, it starts to flutter
Like a snow globe
If I'm Frankincense
Then you're Gold
There's Christmas Magic tonight
So much magic to see
Hidden all around me
If you'll only believe
It's the most
Magical time of year
There's Christmas Magic tonight
Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas
It's the most
Magical time of year
There's Christmas Magic tonight
Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas
It's the most
Magical time of year
There's Christmas Magic tonight
Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas
It's the most
Magical time of year
There's Christmas Magic tonight

Santa's Lost Love

I have a Dream
Of how a Christmas time should be
Warm evenings round the fireplace
Songs round the tree
I lost you a long way
Overland and over sea
If I find you again this Christmas
Would you come back home to me?
I come looking every Christmas
Through the nights
Of the Winter's cold
Hoping with a stop
At every chimney top
To find my love of old
I've been checking every letter
And every Christmas card I read
Hoping that I find that it's
You who’s signed
A wishlist back to me
I have a Dream
Each Christmas I believe
That you'll sail home on the Yuletide
That you'll wave up from the streets
All round the world
I'll look for you each Christmas Eve
And if I fly by you tomorrow
Would you come back home to me?
I've been waiting through the advent
As each midnight bell is tolled
I still hope before it's New Year's Day
You'll walk in from the cold
Every night of December
Before the sunlight brings the dawn
Shining off afar it’s the Northern Star
Leading you back home
I have a Dream
Each Christmas I believe
That you'll sail home on the Yuletide
That you'll wave up from the streets
All round the world
I'll look for you each Christmas Eve
And if I fly by you tomorrow
Would you come back home to me?
With the moon as my lantern
And a map of the stars
These Christmas lights
Will guide me back
In to your loving arms
Hope is never forgotten
It's timeless as the trees
I'll never stop believing
You're out there
Looking in the sky for me
I have a Dream
Each Christmas I believe
That you'll sail home on the Yuletide
That you'll wave up from the streets
All round the world
L'Il look for you each Christmas Eve
And if fly by you tomorrow
Would you come back home to me?
I have a Dream
Each Christmas I believe
That you'll sail home on the Yuletide
That you'll wave up from the streets
All round the world
L'Il look for you each Christmas Eve
And if fly by you tomorrow
Would you come back home to me?

Remember when
December was a countdown
And the days couldn’t pass too soon
And the advent calendar chocolates
Were all gone the first afternoon
Each year we all get together
Celebrate the joys of our youth
The excitement never dies
It’s in everybody’s eyes
Each year it’s born anew
So come on and let’s sing
See how all the world lights up
As the winter time arrives
And we’re all here
Singing our hearts out
Keeping this Christmas dream alive
So come on and let’s sing
Think of all the times we’ve had
As our laughter fills the skies
And we’re all here
Singing our hearts out
Keeping this Christmas dream
Alive, it’s true
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Remember when we
Woke up every morning
Fresh snow lying on the ground
We had snowball fights
On long December nights
As the bells rang over the town
Each night we’d all get together
’Til our fingers and our toes were blue
The excitement never dies
It’s in everybody’s eyes
Each year it’s born anew
So come on and let’s sing
See how all the world lights up
As the winter time arrives
And we’re all here
Singing our hearts out
Keeping this Christmas dream alive
So come on and let’s sing
Think of all the times we’ve had
As our laughter fills the skies
And we’re all here singing our hearts out
Keeping this Christmas dream
Alive, it’s true
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Alive, it’s true
Some come on let’s get together
Have a festive drink or two
The excitement never dies
It’s in everybody’s eyes
This year it’s born anew
So come on and let’s sing
See how all the world lights up
As the winter time arrives
And we’re all here
Singing our hearts out
Keeping this Christmas dream alive
So come on and let’s sing
Think of all the times we’ve had
As our laughter fills the skies
And we’re all here
Singing our hearts out
Keeping this Christmas dream alive
So come on and let’s sing
See how all the world lights up
As the winter time arrives
And we’re all here
Singing our hearts out
Keeping this Christmas dream alive
So come on and let’s sing
Think of all the times we’ve had
As our laughter fills the skies
And we’re all here
Singing our hearts out
Keeping this Christmas dream
Alive, it’s true
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Alive, it’s true
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

A Little Christmas Love

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
The air is so cold
We light up the fire
And stay inside
Our cheeks are so numb
But we can't help smiling
Even if we tried
'Cause girl I know
This winter's been our darkest season
But hey we're still shining baby
You're my reason
There's a little love
That's the only thing I'm wishing for
Wishing for
We listen for the bells
In the skies above
It's Christmas Eve
And I've fallen in love
My gift is small
But if it's not enough
I'd take my heart
I'd wrap it up
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
I'd wrap it up
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
If I had my way
You could fill a new house
With all the things I'd buy
The present you gave me
I can tell that you made it
But I don't mind
'Cause baby if you give me
Just one of your kisses
Girl you'll have me feeling
Like a King this Christmas
Just a little love
That's the only thing I'm wishing for
Wishing for
We listen for the bells
In the skies above
It's Christmas Eve
And I've fallen in love
My gift is small
But if it's not enough
I'd take my heart
I'd wrap it up
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
I'd wrap it up
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Santa's on his way
And there's hope in the air
But he could skip our house baby
I wouldn't care
Let his sleigh pass by
What we've got we can share
A little Christmas love
Will take us anywhere
We listen for the bells
In the skies above
It's Christmas Eve
And I've fallen in love
My gift is small
But if it's not enough
I'd take my heart
I'd wrap it up
We listen for the bells
In the skies above
It's Christmas Eve
And I've fallen in love
My gift is small
But if it's not enough
I'd take my heart
I'd wrap it up
We listen for the bells
In the skies above
It's Christmas Eve
And I've fallen in love
My gift is small
But if it's not enough
I'd take my heart
I'd wrap it up
I'd take my heart
I'd wrap it up
I'd take my heart
I'd wrap it up

#VERSE
Though the world
Has set us miles apart
I’m writing you
This Christmas card
There’s so much that
I have for you to tell
I’m counting as the days go by
You’re closer with each clear night sky
Oh Baby
Do you feel the thrill as well?
#PRE-CHORUS
I’ll see the curtains drawn
With the firelight showing
The coloured lights
Within are glowing
I’ll be there standing at your door
And soon we won’t be waiting
Anymore
#CHORUS
Two thousand years
Have gone before
This year’s the greatest Christmas
Of them all
I’m racing Santa to your door
This is the greatest Christmas
Of them all
#VERSE
The more I think of you and me
Your perfect half of our Christmas tree
The more it makes me
Wonder what to give
Oh, my memories are golden all
Bright as the stained glass of St. Paul’s
I’ll soon be coming home
To where we live
#PRE-CHORUS
I’ll see chimney smoke
From the warm log fire
Christmas comes as
The flames get higher
I’m racing Santa to your door
And soon we won’t be waiting
Anymore
#CHORUS
Two thousand years
Have gone before
This year’s the greatest Christmas
Of them all
I’m racing Santa to your door
This is the greatest Christmas
Of them all
#INSTRUMENTAL

Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah
#HOOK
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah
#PRE-CHORUS
I’ll see the front door open wide
And I’ll feel the warmth
As I step inside
With tinsel running down the hall
That leads us to the place where all
The faces lit by candlelight
And music playing through the night
I’m racing Santa to your door
And soon we won’t be waiting
Anymore
#CHORUS
Two thousand years
Have gone before
This year’s the greatest Christmas
Of them all
I’m racing Santa to your door
This is the greatest Christmas
Of them all
#CHORUS
Two thousand years
Have gone before
This year’s the greatest Christmas
Of them all
I’m racing Santa to your door
This is the greatest Christmas

Christmas in the Morning
03:50

It’s freezing and the streets
Are like ice rinks
People are wrapped up
Trying to fight off the cold
Times are poor here
But no-one seems to notice
Our pockets are empty
But our hearts’ solid gold
And the city tells
A story this evening
The night is lit up
By coloured lights
On the trees
And the hands on
The clock tick by slowly
The sound of young voices
Drifts along on the breeze
And the church bells
They are calling
It’s Christmas
In the morning
There’s excitement
As the night starts to fall
And the sons
And all the daughters
With their fathers
And their mothers
Are wrapped up round
The fire keeping warm
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
The shops along
The high street are closing
Glowing faces turn
To make their way home
Minds filled with thoughts
Of Christmas approaching
Expectations for
The big day to come
And she says that
She’s excited to see me
She’s got the mulled wine
Being warmed on the stove
And as I step into
The light of our house
There’s the sight
Of her waiting
And I know that I’m home
And the church bells
They are calling
It’s Christmas in the morning
There’s excitement
As the night starts to fall
And the sons and all the daughters
With their fathers and their mothers
Are wrapped up round
The fire keeping warm
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah…
The alehouse in the village is rockin’
Music playing, champagne
Brandy and beer
People half-cut
And it’s not 8 o’clock yet
Ruddy faces filled
With drunk Christmas cheer
As the band plays
The last song of the evening
Everyone dancing starts
To cry out for more
And when the barman rings the bell
To our friends we say farewell
Smiling faces turn
And head for the door
And the church bells, they are calling
And the church bells, they are calling
It’s Christmas in the morning
There’s excitement
As the night starts to fall
And the sons and all the daughters
With their fathers and their mothers
Are wrapped up round
The fire keeping warm
And the church bells
They are calling
It’s Christmas in the morning
There’s excitement
As the night starts to fall
And the sons and all the daughters
With their fathers and their mothers
Are wrapped up round
The fire keeping warm
And the church bells
They are calling
It’s Christmas in the morning
There’s excitement
As the night starts to fall
And the sons and all the daughters
With their fathers and their mothers
Are wrapped up round
The fire keeping warm

December the twenty-fifth
Somebody told me that Santa Claus
Was a myth
But I still believe in him
I’ll tell you why
Last Christmas I met a girl
And I fell in love
In one second
If you believe that
You can believe reindeer can fly
#PRE-CHORUS
And maybe, last Christmas
Was the start of something great
And the feelings
That we had won’t
Melt away
#VERSE
Our first date it was bitterly cold
And we laughed and we talked
As the hours flew by
And the Christmas lights
Were dancing in her eyes
And then soon it was all I was thinking
By New Year
We could be more than good friends
The reasons, the reasons, all I know
#CHORUS
And maybe this Christmas
The clouds will open up for us
And our snowmen
Will not melt before Valentine’s
I’ll still love you this Christmas
And what I’m hoping
From Santa’s sack
Is to kiss you
And for you to kiss me back
#VERSE
Too soon it was New Year’s Day
And the Christmas lights
All got packed away
And summer seemed
So far away this year
But soon it was all I was thinking
Maybe next year
We could be more than good friends
The reasons, the reasons, all I know
#CHORUS
And maybe next Christmas
The clouds will open up for us
And our snowmen
Will not melt before Valentine’s
I’ll still love you next Christmas
And what I’m hoping
From Santa’s sack
Is to kiss you
And for you to kiss me back
#INSTRUMENTAL
#CHORUS
And if maybe this Christmas
The clouds will open up for us
And our snowmen
Will not melt before Valentine’s
I’ll still love you this Christmas
And what I’m hoping
From Santa’s sack
Is to love you
And for you to love me back
#OUTRO
And maybe, one Christmas
When the fire is burning low
We’ll sit together
And we’ll laugh about times of old
