Sidewalk Prophets

Give Me Christmas

Sidewalk Prophets


Get out of bed
Outside the window there’s nothing but snow
Run down the stairs
The smile in my heart has spread down to my toes
Heaven knows

Ribbons of red
Presents as far as the eye can see
In this wonderland
The tree is a tower of gold and green
What a wonderful scene

All the lights and the toys
Bring us joy
In the end, it’s just not enough
Cause what we really need
And what Christmas really means is love
Give me Christmas, give me Christmas

The table is set
A house full of friends and family
The fire is warm
We’ll be singing those songs and laughing all night long
Cause there’s one thing we all can agree

All the lights and the toys
Bring us joy
In the end, it’s just not enough
Cause what we really need
And what Christmas really means is love
Give me Christmas, give me Christmas

Gather round the tree
And remember what Christmas really means

All the cookies and candy
The carols and candles
The stockings and the snow
All the tinsel and trimmings
And the lights are all twinkling
The world is all aglow
All of these things are so wonderful beautiful
But what we really need is love

Give me Christmas
Give me Christmas
