Christmas Brought Me You

Hanging lights on the front door, it’s my favorite time of year
Pull a wreath out of cardboard, it says everyone is welcome here
Grandma’s frosting the cookies
She waves at neighbors as they pass
She laughs as I sing Jingle Bells out of a marshmallow mustache
My little daughter came running up and sat on my knee
She said Dad I got a question for you
I said what's on your mind
She said I am not sure if Christmas dreams come true
Thought about it for a minute
Turned up Tony Bennett
Said love I think I know that they do
She was asking me how as I twirled her around
I said Christmas brought me you
And there is snow in the forecast, we’re staying in so that’s alright
Watch the flakes start to come down across the road under the streetlight
And I think about heaven, how it must be just like this
With everybody you love and everybody you miss
My little daughter came running up and sat on my knee
She said Dad I got a question for you
I said what's on your mind
She said I am not sure if Christmas dreams come true
Thought about it for a minute
Turned up Tony Bennett
Said love I think I know that they do
She was asking me how as I twirled her around
I said Christmas brought me you
My daughter comes running up she’s smiling at me
She says Dad I gotta tell you something
Then tears fill her eyes
As she tells me surprise and shows me her wedding ring
Think about it for a minute
Turn up Tony Bennett
Said love I told you it was all true
And she knows I am proud as I twirl her around
The lights in the living room
