(It's the mem'ry of an old Christmas card) There's an old Christmas card in an old dusty trunk And it brings back sweet mem'ries dear to me Though it's faded and worn, it's as precious as the morn When I found it 'neath our first Christmas tree I thrill with every word, every line Guess I'm always sentimental 'round this time Pardon me if a tear falls among my Christmas cheer It's the mem'ry of an old Christmas card ♪ You know, I don't know why I get to feeling Sentimental about this time every year But every time I see a Christmas card I somehow can't help reminiscing About the very first Christmas that you and I spent together What a beautiful Christmas card you gave me that year Why I know you must have looked through thousands of cards To find that wonderful poem That still brings a tear to my eye I thrill with every word, every line Guess I'm always sentimental 'round this time Pardon me if a tear falls among my Christmas cheer It's the mem'ry of an old Christmas card
