Silver bells are ringing
Carolers are singing
Snowflakes drifting
Through the air
Everybody's shopping
Got no time for stopping
It looks like Christmas
Is here

So tell me
How do I wrap my heart up
For Christmas
I wanna give it to you
Pretty bows and ribbons
Don't fit the gift
I'm givin'
Your lovin' ares
Will have to do

At first
I though of giving you
A pretty diamond ring
Wore myself out shopping
For a million other things
Finally decided
On something you can't buy
But how will I disguise it
So you will be surprised

How do I wrap my heart up
For Christmas
I wanna give it to you
Pretty bows and ribbons
Don't fit the gift
I'm givin'
Your lovin' ares
Will have to do

A gift of love
Was given to
The world so long ago
Laying in a manger
He was wrapped
In swadlin' clothes
And every year
We celebrate
And thank the Lord above
And give to one another
Our little gifts of love

How do I wrap my heart up
For Christmas
I wanna give it to you
Pretty bows and ribbons
Don't fit the gift
I'm givin'
Your lovin' ares
Will have to do

Pretty bows and ribbons
Don't fit the gift
I'm givin'
Your lovin' ares
Will have to do
