Wrangle the kids, get them to bed Warm up the tea and granny's shortbread Pillows and blankets on the floor Light up a candle that smells like a pie It's not my first choice but it's what you like And I always choose the music Sitting here We don't need to speak In the glow of the lights on the tree All the ways That my heart's bursting It's the hope of the choir as they sing It's the snow, it's the fire, you and me I wait for this day every year Takes forever to come then it disappears Never quite lasting long enough Sitting here We don't need to speak In the glow of the lights on the tree All the ways That my heart's bursting It's the hope of the choir as they sing It's the snow, it's the fire, you and me Sitting here We don't need to speak In the glow of the lights on the tree All the ways That my heart's bursting It's the hope of the choir as they sing It's the snow, it's the fire, you and me Every year it's a new memory
