Tommy James Album

I love Christmas time, mistletoe, and cherry wine;
Songs of Christmas cheer when Christmas time is here.
Love to hear the whole world singing.
All the jingle bells are ringing.
Joy to the world! I Love Christmas!

When I was three, my momma took me to see Santa Claus.
Up to the second floor of the department store and there he was.
I asked him, "Could ya' please bring a teddy bear?"
He told me not to worry: he'd be there.
But does Santa keep his promises? Yes he does. Yes he does!
I love Christmas time, mistletoe, and cherry wine;
Songs of Christmas cheer when Christmas time is here.
Love to hear the whole world singing.
All the jingle bells are ringing.
Joy to the world! I Love Christmas!

So now I'm watching my own kids under the Christmas tree.
I hear ‘em playing and laughing, just like it was me.
And I thank the good Lord everyday that we live here in the U.S.A.
And from my heart all I can say is, "Happy Birthday, Jesus!"
I love Christmas time, mistletoe, and cherry wine;
Songs of Christmas cheer when Christmas time is here.
Love to hear the whole world singing.
All the jingle bells are ringing.
Joy to the world! I Love Christmas!

Oh, what a beautiful baby;
Sent to show us the way.
Bringing the world his heavenly light;
Born on the first Christmas day.

On a cold winter's night in Bethlehem,
Born is a Savior.
And because there was no room for him,
He lay in a manger.
Sing with joy! (Sing with joy!)
Sing with joy! (Sing with joy!)
The long night is over!
Lift your voice! (Lift your voice!)
And rejoice! (And rejoice!)
The weight is off our shoulders!

The world with a dark and dreary past
Lay in pieces.
But the light of the world is here at last.
His name shall be Jesus.
Sing with joy! (Sing with joy!)
Sing with joy! (Sing with joy!)
The long night is over!
Lift your voice! (Lift your voice!)
And rejoice! (And rejoice!)
The weight is off our shoulders! (The weight is off our shoulders!)

Down through the years that holy night
Became the Christmas story.
How one small child and the hand of God
Brought the whole world glory.
Sing with joy! (Sing with joy!)
Sing with joy! (Sing with joy!)
The long night is over!
Lift your voice! (Lift your voice!)
And rejoice! (And rejoice!)
The weight is off our shoulders!

Oh, what a beautiful baby;
Sent to show us the way.
Bringing the world his heavenly light;
Born on the first Christmas day.
Oh, what a beautiful baby
Born on the first Christmas day.

While everyone's dreamin' sweet Christmas dreams,
Part of me's comin' apart at the seams.

Seems like just the other day:
You and me and mistletoe;
Makin' angels in the snow.
Never thought I could feel that way.
What a magic thing to find:
You're in love at Christmas time.

We fell in love over there.
Street light made the snow glisten in your hair.
I saw forever when I looked in your eyes.
I never thought about saying goodbye.

We had love, turn around, and we lost it.
You were gone like a flame in the wind.
They say time gonna make it better.
But just about the time I think I'm over you, ooh-ooh-ooh;
It's Christmas again.

All alone in a crowded place:
Watchin all the lights that shine;
Suddenly you're on my mind.
Just for a moment, I see your face
Softly looking back at me
Just the way you used to be.

I know you're feelin' it, too.
I know wherever you are that you do.
When you hear laughter and bells are ringin',
I think I know what you're thinkin'.

We had love, turn around, and we lost it.
You were gone like a flame in the wind.
They say time gonna make it better.
But just about the time I think I'm over you, ooh-ooh-ooh;
It's Christmas again.

Lovin' you, love; it's Christmas; still in love.
Lovin' you, love; it's Christmas; still in love; it's Christmas again. (repeat ad lib)
