Lyrics

Lights on the avenue
All seem so far away

I'm up here
drinking a toast to you

On such a
special day

Tonight is the night for
I love you's

Wish we could have this feeling
Throughout the year

Christmas is here
Christmas is here

Tonight is the night for
I love you's

And if you hold me near you
You'll feel my heart

beating for two

Tonight is the night for

I love you's
Up above the snow is falling

And stars disappear 
My heart is coming

Christmas is here
