Hang all the mistletoe
I'm gonna get to know you better
This Christmas
And as you trip the tree
How much fun it's gonna be together
This Christmas
The fire starts blazing bright
And we're caroling through the night
And this Christmas will be
A very special Christmas for me, yeah
Shake their hand
Shake their hand now
Presents [?] are here
My world is filled with [?]
This Christmas
And as I look around
Your eyes [?] they do
This Christmas
The fire starts blazing bright
And we're caroling through the night
And this Christmas will be
A very special Christmas for me, yeah
Shake their hand
Shake their hand now
The fire starts blazing bright
And we're caroling through the night
And this Christmas will be
A very special Christmas for me, yeah
Shake their hand
Shake their hand now
Shake their hand
Shake their hand now
Shake their hand
Shake their hand now, oh
