The Magic Is You (Look Inside)

Lyrics:
It’s gonna be a beautiful Christmas, just you wait and see
Santa’s gonna come and leave a lotta presents under the Christmas Tree
Whether the ground is white or green, we’ll be happy as can be
It’s gonna be a beautiful Christmas, just as long as you’re with me

The sound of sleigh bells in the air
I hear them jingle and I don’t have a care
It has been a long, hard year
We need a break, for Heaven sake
When will the holiday be here?

It’s gonna be a beautiful Christmas, let me paint the scene
Pretty lights, silent nights, decorations of red and green
If I get this Christmas wish, I know that it will be
A beautiful Christmas, just as long as you’re with me

It’s gonna be a beautiful Christmas, just as long as you’re with me
Meet ya by the Christmas tree
