This Time of Year

They say that Spring is for lovers
And Summer brings the sun
But after autumn leaves have fallen
My favorite season has just begun

I love (I love, I love)
This time of year (This time of year)
On a copley winter's night, you can see the stars so bright
I love (I love, I love)
This time of year (This time of year)
Children covered head to toe making angels in the snow

When friends and family come together (together)
To raise a glass or two (To raise a glass or two)
And even if it's stormy weather
Nothing's better than to be at home with you

That's why I love (I love, I love)
This time of year (This time of year)
Hand to hand just you and me searching for that perfect tree
I love (I love, I love)
This time of year (This time of year)
Smiling faces one and all seeing Santa at the mall

They say the spirit of Christmas (Christmas)
Keeps you young yes I am told (It keeps you young x2)
The child that's buried deep within us
Is with us even when we grow old

That's why I love (I love, I love)
This time of year (I love this time of year)
Church bells ringing, careless singing
Spreading joy and cheer
That's why I love this time of year
Oh how I love
This time of year (I love this time of year x2)

Merry, Merry Christmas, Merry, Merry Christmas
