Old December's here at last
Time for celebration
Christmas present, Christmas past
Tumble down together like
The snow
What a show

Now the snowman someone made
Is melting by the road side
On the wind a serenade
Children's voices singing I believe
I believe in us
I believe

[Chorus:]
On Christmas morning
You awaken with a smile
You hold me in your arms
We watch the snowflakes fly

And then you love me
And I realize
How sweet love can be
All the memories
Coming back again each year
On Christmas morning

Sentimental melodies surround me
Like an old friend
She spent the winter here with me
Silently we watched the season change
And they change so fast and fade away
