It’s another day closer to Christmas
The stores are decorated in gold and red
The catalog pages are circled
Dreams of toys and goodies race through little heads

Children’s faces all aglow
It’s getting close, and they all know
It’s another day closer to Christmas
Will you be coming around?

It’s another day closer to Christmas
Treasures in the kitchen make a lovely scene
The whole house smells like a bakery
A gingerbread army dressed in butter cream

Children’s faces all aglow
It’s getting close, and they all know
It’s another day closer to Christmas
Will you be coming around?

Lights shining so bright
(shining bright, shining oh so very bright)
Shine on us tonight
Oh, wonderful sight this season

It’s another day closer to Christmas
Mother’s hanging garland on the Christmas tree
Father’s hiding gifts in the attic
Sister’s watching Christmas specials on TV   

Children’s faces all aglow
It’s all because of Santa Claus
It’s another day closer to Christmas
Will you be coming around?

We’re counting the days until it’s here (4,3,2,1)

It’s another day closer to Christmas
Father tells the story by the firelight
Leave a cookie and some milk by the mantle
Off to bed, but oh so hard to sleep tonight

Soon they’ll  dream of Santa Claus
Sleighs and toys, and reindeer paws
It’s another day closer to Christmas
Will you be coming around?

Oh, Santa, will you be coming around?
Will you be coming around?
