Lyrics for Christmas In The Room

No travel bags, no shopping malls No candy canes, no Santa Claus For as the day of rest draws near It's just the two of us this year No silver bells or mistletoe We'll kiss and watch our TV show I'll come to you, I'll sing to you Like it's Christmas in the room I'll dance with you, I'll laugh with you Till it's Christmas in the room No traffic jams, no ice and storm Far in the house the fire is warm No Christmas tree, no great parade It's just an ordinary day No parties planned, no place to go It's just the two of us alone And in the house we see a light That comes what we feel inside I'll come to you, I'll sing to you Like it's Christmas in the room I'll dance with you, I'll laugh with you Till it's Christmas in the room Till it's Christmas in the room Oh, I can't see the day when we'll die But I don't care to think of silence For now I hear you laughing The greatest joy is like the sunrise No gifts to give, they're all right here Inside our hearts, the glorious cheer And in the house we seek a light That comes from what we know inside I'll come to you, I'll sing to you Like it's Christmas in the room I'll dance with you, I'll laugh with you Till it's Christmas in the room I'll come to you, I'll sing to you Like it's Christmas in the room I'll dance with you, I'll laugh with you Like it's Christmas in the room Like it's Christmas in the room
