There’s that lovely, familiar scent wafting,
Down the halls, of evergreen
That can only mean it’s Christmastime

Every year it’s easy to forget when
These days come they rush by if you let them
Oh, I’m bound to slow them down to find

The people that we meet more forgiving
And the colors steep to reap a deeper hue,
And the taking we do all year turns to giving,
And oh dear, even an old love can seem to be new

Oh, I’d like to invite you with me,
To watch the snowflakes fall slowly
There’s no fuss, just us, in this slow Christmas

As the air fills up with winter tunes,
And the nights fill with lights strung down the avenue,
There’s a chance our cadence will be soft and smooth

There’s no need for more shopping bags to be holding
Through the hustle and bustle we’ll be strolling,
Through the crisp air’s whispered melody

Oh, I’d like to invite you with me,
To watch the snowflakes fall slowly
There’s no fuss, just us, in this slow Christmas
