Christmas is not about giving, or receiving
It's not
But spending time with your family
Not alone in your thoughts

When we come together as one,
Not separated apart
We see joy on our faces
And love in our hearts

Friends they may come,
And sure they might go,
But family will always be there for you
That much you know

So take a day to yourself,
Play games with a brother
Or spend and hour one day
Just speaking to mother

As the day ends so soon
The sun sets so fast,
We should cherish each moment together,
As if it were the last

Merry Christmas today, and Merry Christmas tomorrow
Just remember that the magic of Christmas
Does not have to be borrowed
