It's not the glow you feel, when snow appears It's not the Christmas card, you've sent for years Not the joyful sound, when sleigh bells ring (ring ring ring) Or the merry songs, children sing Yeah the little gift you send, on Christmas day Will not bring back the friend, you turned away So may I suggest, the secret of Christmas (the secret of Christmas) It's not the things you do, at Christmas time But the Christmas things you do all year through
