Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can hardly wait for Christmas
[Verse 2]
January's slow
February snow
Spring, you take so long
Summer's hardly gone
[Verse 3]
And I can't wait
I can hardly wait for Christmas
[Verse 4]
While it's Christmas time
Our problems disappear
All these special thoughts
Are going through our mind
[Verse 5]
Seems like everyone
Is filled with love and cheer
They find a way
A reason to be kind
[Verse 6]
That is why we love this time of the year
[Verse 7]
'Cause January's slow
And February snow
Spring, it takes so long
Summer's hardly gone
[Verse 8]
'Cause I can't wait
I can hardly wait for Christmas
[Verse 9]
Mmm, I wish this feeling
Would last the whole year through
When it's Christmas time
We give straight from the heart
[Verse 10]
It seems like everyone
Is filled with love and cheer
Some way we find
A reason to be kind
[Verse 11]
That is why we love this time of the year
[Verse 12]
'Cause January's slow
February snow
Spring, it takes too long
Summer's almost gone
[Verse 13]
And I can't wait
I can hardly wait for Christmas
[Verse 14]
Autumn's on its way
And then Thanksgiving day
December's finally here
Because it's a special time of year
[Verse 15]
And I can't wait
I can hardly wait for Christmas
[Verse 16]
January's slow
February snow
Spring, it takes too long
Summer's almost gone
[Verse 17]
And I can't wait
I can hardly wait for Christmas
[Verse 18]
Autumn's on its way
And then Thanksgiving day
December's finally here
Because it's a special time of year
[Verse 19]
I can't wait
I can hardly wait for Christmas
