Leaving The Lights Up

The sound of the snow crunching under their feet
Dragging their trees to the bin
Packing away the nativity scene
And unplugging Santa again
The only thing faster at melting than snow
Is the spirit of holiday cheer

So we're leaving the lights up, my dear
Might leave them up the whole year
The world gets a little too dark when Christmas ain't here

They'll probably beg us to take the elves down
When December is turning to May
But when you're the only bright spot in this town
You might help someone find their way
For everyone writing to old father Christmas
Or wishing a star would appear

We're leaving the lights up, my dear
Might leave them up the whole year
The world gets a little too dark when Christmas ain't here

For everyone writing to old father Christmas
Or wishing a star would appear

We're leaving the lights up, my dear
Might leave them up the whole year
The world gets a little too dark when Christmas ain't here

Fa la la la...

The sound of the snow crunching under their feet
Dragging their trees to the bin
