I REMEMBER CHRISTMAS Written By: Richard Wintergarten I remember Christmas Watching snow flakes fall And kissing you beneath the mistletoe Hanging in the hall And all the little children Gathered ‘round the tree Softly singing Christmas carols In off-key harmony Chorus But most of all the memories Of our first Christmas day You gave your gift of love to me And made it Christmas every day So here’s to all the good times And the friends we knew And to a merry Christmas Especially for you So here’s to all the good times And the friends we knew Yes, I remember Christmas day Remembering with you © 1973, 1986, 1988 Sceneville Industries MY FAVORITE TIME OF THE YEAR Written By: Richard Wintergarten & Robert Knudsen Listen to the bells ringing clear That’s a special sound that you hear It’s the sound of the holidays Around us all good cheer It’s my favorite time of the year Like a shining star in the sky There’s a twinkle in every eye And I’m feeling a special way Christmas day is near It’s my favorite time of the year Chorus A time for sharing memories old and new Still in fashion saying I love you A time for caring and lots of wishes too Memories of childhood days Brings out the love in you Listen to the bells ringing clear That’s a special sound that you hear It’s the sound of the holidays Ringing in your ear It’s my favorite time of the year Repeat Chorus Listen to the bells ringing clear That’s a special sound that you hear It’s the sound of the holidays Let’s all give a cheer For my favorite time of the year It’s my favorite time of the year It’s my favorite time of the year Repeat last line while fading © 1986, 1987, 1988 Sceneville Industries OLD CHRISTMAS TIMES WITH YOU Written By: Richard Wintergarten & Robert Knudsen I hear the Christmas carols play It’s getting close to Christmas day But now they’re out of key It’s been that way for me But if I had one Christmas wish That surely would come true I wish I could go back and find Old Christmas times with you I’ll take those memories Wrap them up for me To open when I need A merry Christmas I’ll take those holidays Those good old days of yule The ones I spent with you I still remember Chorus Jingle bells and snow Where did they all go How was I to know They wouldn’t last forever So I’ll take those memories They will see me through Those good old days those good Old Christmas times with you © 1986, 1987, 1988 Sceneville Industries THE LITTLE CHRISTMAS TREE Written By: Richard Wintergarten Once upon a Christmas eve In a land so far away A lonely little Christmas tree Just cried and cried all day I wish I could be happy But I’m sad as I can be You see my friends all found a home But no one wanted me I saw myself the grandest sight In bells of gold and red Along with all those colored lights A star upon my head And when the house was fast asleep Awake I’d surely stay ‘Cause someone has to keep a watch For Santa and his sleigh Chorus Please take me home I don’t want to be alone I want to hear the children sing And play on Christmas day Then from way up high Such a light came from the sky They say the angels came that night To bring great tidings of delight And now the little Christmas tree Won’t ever cry again They’ve chosen him to be The Christmas tree in heaven He found a home And won’t ever be alone And he will hear the angels sing And pray on Christmas day © 1973, 1986, 1988 Sceneville Industries THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS Written By: Richard Wintergarten & Robert Knudsen Stockings hung on fireplaces And the smiles on little faces All the joy the whole world shares This time of year Window shopping crowded places Wishes wrapped in fancy paper Colored lights and decorations Everywhere
