VERSE 1:   When darkness is falling and shadows grow long   It's time for the children to sing this old song   It tells of the coming of wonders untold   Forgotten is winter, its fury and cold,   hi-ho, hi-ho, we'll soon see the candles glow   hi-ho, hi-ho, we'll soon see the candles glow      Repeat Verse 1      When darkness is falling and stars fill the sleigh   The waiting is over and we all know why   It's time for celebrating and having a feast   Because of the tidings that come from the east   hi-ho, hi-ho, we'll soon see the candles glow   hi-ho, hi-ho, we'll soon see the candles glow
