Christmas Stays the Same

Santa Claus and mistletoe
Carols by the fire
Send a card and spread a little Christmas cheer
Silent night a fall of snow
Listen to the choir
Everyone is happy that it's here

For we all remember, some past December
Of tinsel and holly and people we love
Put the angel on the tree then enjoy the view
Wait until the children are asleep and then
Put together all the toys
Hide a gift or two
Wishing you were just a kid again

For we all remember, some past December
Of train sets that whistled and dolls we could name
Oh the years may change
But Christmas stays the same Turkey and gravy
Hams full of honey
Cousins you see once a year
Fathers who scold you
Then slip you some money
And roofs full of tiny reindeer

Yes we all remember some past December
Of grandmas and kitchens with kettles aflame
Oh the years may change
But Christmas stays the same
