I Remember Christmas (45 Version)

I remember Christmas
With the candles and the hanging mistletoe
See the laughing eyes, hear the oohs and sighs
And the presents that were there, covered white with snow

I remember New Year's
And the voices singing songs that made me glow
Now I realize how the time just flies
How we long to hold the past, never let it go

I can see my mom and dad
See them there at the door
See a tree, a Christmas tree
And presents by the score

If I could capture laughter
In the good old-fashioned style I used to know
Hold it in my heart, never let it part
I'd have Christmas every day and a smile to light my way

Each time I remember Christmas
Christmas, Christmas, Christmas
