Great! Cool!
Check it out!
Mmm... It's Christmas time...
Have yourself a merry little Christmas.
Let your heart be light,
From now on our troubles will be out of sight.
Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on our troubles will be miles away.
Yaaa!
Here we are as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yore,
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us, once more.
Like you two.
Through the years
We all will be together
If the fates allow,
Hang a shining star
Up above the highest bough,
Oh yeah.
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.
And won't you have yourself a merry little Christmas now.
A merry little Christmas now.
I want to wish you a Merry Christmas.
[Repeat x 3]
