Little ones fast asleep in bed
Little dreams filling up their heads
Anticipation in the air
It's almost here
Oh, to see Christmas
Through the eyes of a child
For the first time
For the first time
Oh, to see Christmas
With our eyes open wide
It's my favorite time of the year
Oh oh
Little feet walking down the stairs
Little hearts filled with love to share
Music and laughter all around
What a lovely sound
Oh, to see Christmas
Through the eyes of a child
For the first time
For the first time
Oh, to see Christmas
With our eyes open wide
It's my favorite time of the year
Let's drive around
And see the lights all over town
I feel like a kid
Sweet memories coming back again
Oh, to see Christmas
Through the eyes of a child
For the first time
For the first time
Oh, to see Christmas
With our eyes open wide
It's my favorite time of the year
To see Christmas
Through the eyes of a child
For the first time
For the first time
Oh, to see Christmas
With our eyes open wide
It's my favorite time of the year
Oh oh
