How we love those Christmas songs

That take us where the heart belongs

And happy days that go so fast

Recalling a past we'd love to last.

 

But as the festive days recede

And we look to where our lives will lead

Each in our own way - with cheer or tear

Says hello to a brand new year.

 

So - raise a toast - and raise a smile

And reach out over many a mile

To welcome what we hope will be...

The best of times for all to see...

 

The best of times for you and me.
