Lyrics
Stay For Awhile (Christmas Day)
Verse
It’s really not a lot on my wish-list
Had so many come true before
But there’s a mistle toe
When you walk through door
Send a kiss and I’ll wish I had more
Can’t get enough of your love
Of all the holidays it’s my favorite
The time to find a little more joy
Can see their smiles from a mile
Hope they can stay awhile
Wanna hold them and never let go
Waited for this day so long
Chorus
Stay for awhile
Chestnuts roasting by an open fire
High away in the clouds
Stars shining bright on us
Let’s toast to love on Christmas day
It’s a joy to see your face
I wouldn’t have it any other way
Verse
Plenty of presents under the tree
The greatest gift is right in my arms
Could tie yourself with a bow
Take a pose on the floor
And I promise I wouldn’t need more
To me, your love is enough
Gather all around for a movie
Family traditions are core
We’ll bless the Lord for the meal
And we’ll eat til’ we feel
like we can’t take another bite
Desserts ready get in line
Chorus
Stay for awhile
Chestnuts roasting by an open fire
High away in the clouds
Stars shining bright on us
Let’s toast to love on Christmas day
It’s a joy to see your face
I wouldn’t have it any other way
Bridge
This is the season
For the love and the joy we believe in
Celebrate and reflect on the reason for our hope
Reach in your heart and be kind
Give with a cheer in your eyes
Happiness starts from the inside
Chorus
Stay for awhile
Chestnuts roasting by an open fire
High away in the clouds
Stars shining bright on us
Let’s toast to love on Christmas day
It’s a joy to see your face
I wouldn’t have it any other way
