Words:
When Christmas time is over and presents put away,
don't be sad.
There'll be so much to treasure about this Christmas day
and the fun we've had.
So many happy feelings to celebrate with you and 
oh, the good times hurry by so fast,
but even when it's over ther's something you can do to make
Christmas last:

Keep Christmas with you all through the year, 
When Christmas is over, you can keep it near.
Think of this Christmas day when Christmas is far away.

Keep Christmas with you all through the year
When Christmas is over, save some Christmas cheer
These precious moments hold them very dear
And keep Christmas with you all through the year.

Christmas  means the spirit of giving peace and joy to you
the goodness of loving the gladness of living
these are Christmas too.

Keep Christmas with you all through the year
When Christmas is over, save some Christmas cheer
These precious moments hold them very dear
And keep Christmas with you all through the year.
