The Best Time of the Year

Snow flakes and streetlights and covered trees
Kids like this stuff when its up to their knees
And time seems to freeze

The smell of what's cooking a chill in the air
There's wood in the fireplace and music in the air
Can't find a care

The shoppers and workers all bustle about
And people say out loud
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas, merry Christmas
The best time of the year

Presents are wrapped up and loved ones are near
Stockings are hung with the names we hold dear
I'm so glad you're here

The babies are sleeping so deep and so sound
And old folks say out loud
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas, merry Christmas
It's the best time of year

So make the drive
Hang up the lights
Drink up the chocolate
Maybe some wine
'Tis the season
For feeling fine
Forget your problems for once
And have a beautiful time

Snow flakes and bright lights and colored trees
Torn wrapping paper is up to their knees
Time seems to freeze

Merry Christmas, merry Christmas, merry Christmas
The best time of year
