We can walk out after dark,

Because it's Christmas time

Colored lights glow from the park,

Because it's Christmas time.

And the bells on the reindeer sled say, 

It's Christmas time

And the quilt on the back of the bed say,

It's Christmas time



I think about how we could run away,

Now that it's Christmas time

We travel in a one horse open sleigh, 

Now that it's Christmas time



There's your father with his pipe,

He says it's Christmas time

He might let us stay up all night,

Because it's Christmas time

I might wish you all the best 

Because it's Christmas time

I might kiss you on the back of your neck 

Because it's Christmas time



I think about how we could run away, 

Now that it's Christmas time

We travel in a one horse open sleigh, 

Now that it's Christmas time



It's Christmas time
