Lyrics Judy Collins – The Night Before Christmas

Ribbons and paper
Cover the floor
It’s been
A good Christmas

Frost on the window
Snow on the ground
Holiday spirit
Holiday sounds
Everyone’s thankful
I’m thankful, too
Cause oh
What a night
Oh
What a night
Night
Before Christmas
I had with you

It all started
Underneath
That mistletoe

No
We didn’t
Take pictures
But I’ll
Always remember
One very special
Twenty-fourth day
Of December
Cause oh
What a night
Oh
What a night
Night
Before Christmas
I had with you

It all started
Underneath
That mistletoe
While we were
Waiting up
To help
Ol’ Santa Claus
We were
Making merry
In ways
We’d never
Thought of
Then we heard
Those sleigh bells
Ol’ Santa
Almost caught us

If we don’t do it
Next year
Honey
I’m sure
Gonna miss it
Why don’t
We make it
A new
Yuletide tradition
Cause oh
What a night
Oh
What a night
Night
Before Christmas
I had with you
Cause oh
What a night
Oh
What a night
Night
Before Christmas
I had with you
