Sometimes it seems like life is flying by
Do we really have time to take time off
Even for a silent night
But when you wake that sacred morning
For a moment you're a kid again
You forget to worry where you're going
Or how far away you've been
All the busy sounds of life
Come down to a whisper
Whether there's snow or sunny skies
Or any sign of winter
No matter where we are we're home
With all the ones who've missed us
The peace in every heart lights up the sky
And that's why christmas
Nothing left to do but breathe it in
Love like it's all we really are
And all you have to give
Everything just melts away
Except for why we're here
You know one thing will always be the same
For one day a year
All the busy sounds of life
Come down to a whisper
Whether there's snow or sunny skies
Or any sign of winter
No matter where we are we're home
With all the ones who've missed us
The peace in every heart lights up the sky
And that's why christmas
All the busy sounds of life
Come down to a whisper
Whether there's snow or sunny skies
Or any sign of winter
No matter where we are we're home
With all the ones who've missed us
The peace in every heart lights up the sky
And that's why christmas
That's why christmas
