All the things we said we'd do, gazing at the sky
Walking through the holy night, gifts we said we'd buy
Everything you promised me, I lost it all today
But hey, what's Christmas anyway?

Driving downtown window shopping, cream and apple pie
Movies in the afternoon, sweet bread on the fly
Everything you promised me, I lost it all today
Hey, what's Christmas anyway?

Could be wonderful and beautiful
Incredible and magical
Don't you know you threw it all away?
Wonderful and beautiful
Incredible and magical
Now I really don't know what to say
But hey, what's Christmas anyway?

Sometimes you allow your dreams to run along too far
I guess that's just what happens when you wish upon a star
If only I could see you for just another day
But hey, what's Christmas anyway?

Wonderful and beautiful
Incredible and magical
Don't you know you threw it all away?
Wonderful and beautiful
Incredible and magical
And now I really don't know what to say
But hey, what's Christmas anyway?
What's Christmas anyway?
What's Christmas anyway?
What's Christmas anyway?
But hey, what's Christmas anyway?
