DECORATE THE NIGHT


Lyrics as released by Johnny Mathis 2013 
'Sending You A Little Christmas'



December moon, all dressed in white
I wish on every star that you were here tonight
Candy canes and evergreen
Paint a lovely picture of an old familiar scene.

Christmas time, wherever you may be
You'll be here in every memory
When friends all gather round
Toast the child, a toast to you and I
As we decorate the night.

December snow is falling down
And here the distant voices of a choir sound
And as they sing, O Holy Night
Thoughts of you are warmer than the fire light.

Christmas time, wherever you may be
You'll be here in every memory
Friends all gather round
Toast the child, a toast to you and I
As we decorate the night.

(bridge)

A toast to you and I
As we decorate the night

Here to you and I
As we decorate the night.
