There's magic in the air,
I can feel it strong.
Christmas time is coming,
and I know it won't be long.
~~~
The streets they'll be lined,
with shoppers galore.
Decorations will be seen,
in every down town store.
~~~
They'll be trees for sale,
aliened at the lots.
Santa he'll be bringing,
toys for all the tots.
~~~
Carols will be heard,
in homes all around.
You won't want to miss,
that lovely joyful sound.
~~~
Children will be playing,
in the snow piled high.
Turkeys will be baking,
and ooh! I can smell that pie.
~~~
They'll be holdin' midnight mass,
down at the corner church.
Yeah! there's usually a "Scrooge"
and a handful of "jerks".
~~~
Now there's magic in the air,
I can feel it strong.
Christmas time is coming,
and I know it won't be long.
