From the recording Christmas Peace
Lyrics
Writing with your finger on the frosted window pane
The spicy scent of pine trees and the taste of candy canes
The mounting pile of presents underneath the Christmas tree
Oh Santa if you’re listening won’t you grant this wish for me
In this season so divine more than any other time
I want to be a kid again at Christmas
Peace on earth goodwill to men but make me 8 years old again
I want to be a kid again this Christmas
At Grandma’s with my cousins folks are in from out of town
Cookies fudge and eggnog peanut brittle by the pound
No school ‘til after New Years and the snow is piling up
And Mom is in the kitchen brewing cocoa for our cups
In this season so divine more than any other time
I want to be a kid again this Christmas
Peace on earth goodwill to men but make me 8 years old again
I want to be a kid again this Christmas
Driving up and down the streets to see the Christmas lights
Standing side by side in church and singing Silent Night
The story of the shepherds and the star and Wise Men three
Oh baby in the manger fill this heart with childlike glee
In this season so divine more than any other time
I want to be a kid again this Christmas
Peace on earth goodwill to men but make me 8 years old again
I want to be a kid again this Christmas
