Story Behind the Song
Christmastime is a season, it's an attitude, but most of all, it's a birthday party.
Lyrics
Well the candles twinkle with electric lights.
The frosting covers everything in sight.
Yeah with happy people singing happy tunes,
Christmastime is coming soon.
There’s a garland for a streamer and a popcorn string.
With little kids dreamin’ of the gifts you’ll bring,
And with ornaments hanging like little balloons,
Christmastime is coming soon.
The decorations set the stage
For the party of the year.
A birthday celebration’s due.
It’s called Christmastime,
And it’s coming soon.
Yes, the ribbons and the wrapping’s in a festive style.
You just can’t wait to see their faces smile
As the gifts get opened. You remember when
The giving all started with the three wise men.
With the family and the friends, you plan to celebrate,
Everyone’s invited to participate.
And with plenty of goodies and plenty of food,
Christmastime is coming soon.
And something happens deep inside,
That reaches to your soul
And changes your whole attitude.
It’s called Christmastime
And it’s coming soon.
Reindeer and sleigh bells, the party is near.
Let’s sing to the Savior; it’s His time of year.
Christmastime is a birthday too.
Let’s decorate everything in the mood.
Come on, let’s celebrate and spread the news.
Christmastime is coming soon.
