(Day One) I felt a thrill when your eyes met mine
At the Christmas market you were sipping mulled wine
The choir broke out with “Joy To The World”
And that was the beginning for this boy and this girl
(Day Two) Christmas shopping, vinyl in my hand
Took it to the counter, who should turn around
The speakers started playing “If We Make It Through December”
As your finger touched my finger my heart began to tremble
Cause every day is Christmas when you look my way
Let the choir sing forever, bringing us together
All I want for Christmas is to be with you
Let the stars of love align, on the twelfth day make you mine
Days three, four, five and six, every day a little stop
Buying vinyl for the family in my favourite record shop
We’d discuss the merits of my family’s taste
By day seven I was certain my affections weren’t misplaced
Then on the eighth and glorious day
Came a hesitant invite, there’s this band I really like
Don’t suppose you’re free tonight? (Well of course I’m free tonight)
And as the band covered “White Winter Hymnal”
You put your arm around me, sent my body in a whirl
Cause every day is Christmas when you look my way
Let the choir sing forever, bringing us together
All I want for Christmas is to be with you
Let the stars of love align, on the twelfth day make you mine, mine, mine
You may be wondering about days nine, ten, eleven
All I’ll say is on earth there can be heaven
The angels sang of a love divine
By the twelfth day of Christmas I knew that you were mine

Did you gaze out and pray the snow's here to stay
and school's out they'll say
Frozen hands in the park and home after dark
with fire in your heart
Was is so unimaginable thinking we could meet?
Was it so inconceivable to see him in my street?
Alive in the night, in red and in white
Seventeen on the town, the Half Moon and Crown
The xmas eve crowd
Winter's kisses so cold, like hands that you hold
Between young and old
Was is so unimaginable thinking we could meet?
Was it so inconceivable to see you in my street
And kiss you goodnight, in red and in white
Now as satellites track the man with the sack
The world on his back
Could you still see that world through eyes of the girl?
And wake in the night in red and in white
