01. One Last Christmas

The Heart of Christmas
by Matthew West



 

I left the lights up all year ‘round / I just couldn’t bear the thought of takin’ ‘em down
/ I’ve been singing “jingle bell rock” since July / All the neighbors look at me like
I’m crazy but I … // I, got a feeling that I just can’t shake / You see it’s lasted threehundred
sixty four days / And now I’m too excited, I can’t sleep a wink and / I stare at
the snow outside my window just thinkin’ // Come on, Christmas / I don’t know why
you’re taking so long Christmas / Well, I’ve been waiting all year for you to get here
/ And I can’t take another second, can’t you hear me beggin’ / Hurry up Santa Claus
/ Here’s my number just in case those reindeer get lost / I sure wouldn’t mind, if
you’re early this time / So, come on, come on, come on Christmas // Well, there’s just
something about this time of year / You can feel the excitement in the air / Everyone’s
hangin’ with family and friends / And it’s making you feel like a kid once again // Steal
a kiss under the mistletoe / While old Bing sings, “let it snow, let it snow” / The only
thing that’s left on my Christmas list is / I’m hopin’ to catch a peek of old’ St. Nick //
Hearts are racing all around the world / Smiling faces on the boys and girls / Waiting
just to hear those sleigh bells ring / Singing, come on, Christmas do your thing
