I always think of what never came   Again I want to cry   Here we are in the blink of an eye   Another year gone by      Sometimes life gets in the way   We all forget to laugh   The ups and downs come and go   And we don?t know where we're at      But then the snow starts falling   Friends start calling, trees start glowing   You and me are mistletoe   And bells start ringing, carol singing   You and me come home   To the best time of the year      Yeah, it?s the best time   Oh, it?s the best time   After all the holidays are here      Don?t believe in make believe   And never like the crowds   Buy humbug all day long   And it doesn?t make me proud      Once a year I close my eyes   And get pulled into the fold   It warms my heart and feels my soul   Feel like I'm four years old      And when the sleigh bells chiming   Candles shining, chimneys blowing   And you and me are ho ho hoing   Folks start smiling   Kids start piling up and down the lane   It?s the best time of the year      Yeah, it?s the best time   Oh, it?s the best time   After all it?s the best time of the year      Our troubles disappears   As we warm by the fire   Hand in hand for a while   Singing songs of happiness and joy      It?s the best time of the year   We?ll be together      Snow?s falling, winter?s calling   Candles shining, bells are chiming   Snow?s falling, winter?s calling   Candles shining, bells are chiming
