Love's in Our Hearts on Christmas Day
*NSYNC Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Between us
But there's good reason to hold on
It's the happiest time of the year
Filled with laughter and good cheer
As you watch the snow
Sweet love you'll hear me say
You've got my heart on Christmas
Inside my soul your love remains
Love's in our hearts
On Christmas day
The days and weeks and months go by
So slowly
We are both wishing them to fly (wishing in the fly)
As the night begins to fall
Twilight crowns the bedroom cheer (drowns in mellow cheer)
Such a rush of joy
Your love, it comforts me
And I do believe
Loves in our hearts on Christmas
Though far apart
As one we pray
Loves in our hearts
On Christmas day
Snowflake melts in your eye and turns to tear
But you cheek it stays dry
With your warm smile so near
I have no fear
We're gonna make it
Loves in our hearts on Christmas
Though far apart
As one we pray
Loves in our hearts (love is in our hearts)
On Christmas day
