CHRISTMAS STATE OF MIND
(C) Richard Howland (SOCAN) and Beth Walker (ASCAP)


BACK WHEN I WAS SIX YEARS OLD
I TOOK THE ANGEL FROM MY DADDY'S HAND
THEN HE PICKED ME UP SO HIGH
TO REACH THE TREE TOP WHERE SHE COULD STAND

THOUGHT I WAS GONNA BURST
WHEN HE TURNED ON ALL THE LIGHTS
WE COVERED BABY JESUS IN THE MANGER
AND TUCKED HIM IN JUST RIGHT

NOW WHEN THERE'S TIMES I LOSE SIGHT OF WHAT IT ALL MEANS
I'M ALWAYS OVERCOME WITH ALL THESE MEMORIES........

ITS THE TIME WE GET TO SPEND
WITH ALL OUR FRIENDS
AND FAMILIES COME TOGETHER
LET HEARTS MEND
'N' A TIME TO THINK ABOUT
HOW WE CAN SHARE OUR LOVE
TIME TO TAKE A MOMENT
TO THANK GOD ABOVE
ITS A TIMELESS PEACEFUL TIME
ITS A CHRISTMAS STATE OF MIND

NOW TH'KIDS TAKE TURNS PLAYIN' VIDEO GAMES
THEN PUT NAPKINS UNDER ALL THE FORKS
FOOTBALL CHEERS FROM THE ROOM NEXT DOOR
A LITTLE EGG NOG STILL BEING POURED

DINNER GETS A LITTLE CRAZY 
ROOM FOR SIX BUT SQUEEZE TEN SEATS
A TINY VOICE SAYS OUR CHRISTMAS PRAYER
AND MAKES OUR MEAL COMPLETE

SO WHEN THERE'S TIMES I LOSE SIGHT OF WHAT IT ALL MEANS
I'M ALWAYS OVERCOME WITH ALL THESE MEMORIES..............

CHORUS REPEAT



bridge
JUST PASS THE CELL AROUND
TELL MOM JIMMY'S ON THE PHONE
ONE BY ONE WE MAKE HIM LAUGH
CAUSE HE'S THE MISSING PIECE OF HOME.......

CHORUS REPEAT  

OUTRO VOCAL

I LOVE THE NIGHT WE
SPEND TREE TRIMMING
DRINK HOT CHOCOLATE
'N' WE'RE ALL SINGING
IT PUTS ME IN A 
CHRISTMAS STATE OF MIND

JUST LIKE SLEIGH BELLS RINGING......

AND WHEN I WRAP THE
GIFTS FOR GIVING
AND SIGN THE CARD
WITH LOVE I'M FEELING
THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE A
CHRISTMAS STATE OF MIND

IT'S LIKE A NEW BEGINNING............
