When Christamas Comes To Town

im wishing on a star
and trying to believe
that even though its far
he'll find me christmas eve
i guess that santa's busy
cause he's never come around
i think of him when christmas comes to town
meagan:
the best time of the year
when everyone comes home
with all this christmas cheer
its hard to be alone
putting up the christmas tree
with friends who come around
its so much fun when christmas comes to town
meagan:
presents for the children
wrapped in red and green
matthew:
all the things i've heard about
but never really seen
both:
no one will be sleeping on
the night of christmas eve
hoping santas on his way
meagan:
presents for the children
wrapped in red and green
matthew:
all the things i've heard about
but never really seen
both:
no one will be sleeping on
the night of christmas eve
hoping santas on his way
meagan:
when santas sleigh bells ring
matthew:
i listen all around
meagan:
the harold angels sing
matthew:
i never hear a sound
meagan:
and all the dreams of children
matthew:
once lost will now be found
meagan:
thats all i want when christmas comes to town
both:
thats all i want when christmas comes to town
