It’s Magic At Christmas Lyrics:

Its late in December, we’re stuck inside with this weather, so why don’t you get close to me. The streets are quiet, everybody’s in their beds, and the big man’s putting presents beneath the trees. And right now’s the moment (look out your window), Its snowing (where’s all the time go?), I cant believe its that time of year again. And we’re going to celebrate (raise up your glass), Before its too late (Give thanks for our past), we all hope the fun will never end.

It’s the magic of Christmas, the lights are shining bright for you and me tonight. It’s the magic of Christmas, nothing we can’t do, as long as I’m with you I’m with you, you (when I’m with you its magic at Christmas). I’m with you, you. (when I’m with you its magic at Christmas), (when I’m with you its magic at Christmas).

Waking up in the morning, the fireplace is warming up for the day that’s ahead. And all the children are singing, and sleigh bells are ringing, from the second we get out of bed. And right now’s the moment (look out your window), Its snowing (where’s all the time go?), I cant believe its that time of year again. And we’re going to celebrate (raise up your glass), Before its too late (Give thanks for our past), We all hope the fun will never end.

It’s the magic of Christmas, the lights are shining bright for you and me tonight. It’s the magic of Christmas, nothing we can’t do as long as I’m with you. I’m with you, you (when I’m with you its magic at Christmas). I’m with you, you. With you, you. (when I’m with you its magic at Christmas). (when I’m with you its magic at Christmas). (when I’m with you its magic at Christmas). (when I’m with you its magic at Christmas) Magic at Christmas, Magic at Christmas.
