Chris Farren Shelby S Christmas Eve Lyrics
Shelby's Christmas Eve by Chris Farren
The tree is all decorated
The lights are aglow
The ground is covered
By the new fallen snow
Families are gathered
All together again
Reliving memories
Of way back when
Children and grandchildren
All running about
All through the house
Their laughter rings out
Friends and neighbors
They all stop by
Some to stay awhile
Others, just to say "Hi"
Under the mistletoe
A couple kisses in the hall
It's the time of year
When love's shared by all
Old hurts are finally
Laid down to rest
And to get along
Everyone tries their best
The cookies and eggnog
Are just about gone
One small child
Tries to hide a sleepy yawn
As bedtime approaches
And draws near
The children crawl into bed
Not with one tear
Even the dog and cat
Seem to get along
While everyone gathers
To sing one last song
Joyous glee
And wondrous delight
Just an old fashioned
Christmas Eve night
The lights are aglow
The ground is covered
By the new fallen snow
Families are gathered
All together again
Reliving memories
Of way back when
Children and grandchildren
All running about
All through the house
Their laughter rings out
Friends and neighbors
They all stop by
Some to stay awhile
Others, just to say "Hi"
Under the mistletoe
A couple kisses in the hall
It's the time of year
When love's shared by all
Old hurts are finally
Laid down to rest
And to get along
Everyone tries their best
The cookies and eggnog
Are just about gone
One small child
Tries to hide a sleepy yawn
As bedtime approaches
And draws near
The children crawl into bed
Not with one tear
Even the dog and cat
Seem to get along
While everyone gathers
To sing one last song
Joyous glee
And wondrous delight
Just an old fashioned
Christmas Eve night
