I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day

Busy streets and yellow twinkling lights

Falling snow, your hand inside of mine

There's a place that I'd like you to go with me if you don't mind

Where the memories are tinted gold and the doorways topped with mistletoe

I don't know what you're doing this December

but I'd like to take you home

Grab a couple tickets for the midnight train

Before you know it, we'll be home again

Around the fireside drinking too much wine with my old friends

In the city, all dressed up in white

It looks so fine at Christmas time

I don't know what you're doing this December

But I'd like to take you home

There's something in the air this time of year

Brotherhood, forgiveness, and good cheer

But the holidays wouldn't be the same without you, dear

Cause when you're near me I don't feel the cold

So hold me close and let it snow

I don't know what you're doing this December

But I'd like to take you home

Pencil me in for December

Cause I'd like to take you home
