It’s the happiest time of the year
With Christmas almost here
There’s something magic in the air
You feel it everywhere
It’s the prettiest time of the year
It won’t stop snowing here
The neighbors’ homes twinkle in the night
What a gorgeous sight
But the thing that makes Christmas — Christmas to me
Is right in this room — it’s my family
May all of you have a merry Christmas
It’s the happiest time of the year
The most magical time of the year
I hold this time so dear
To see a season through a child’s eyes
Their wonder and surprise
But the thing that makes Christmas — Christmas to me
Is right in this room — it’s my family
May all of you have a merry Christmas
It’s the happiest time
The most wonderful time
It’s the happiest time of the year
