I can hear my mom humming along

Memories that seem so near

Reminiscent of the family I hold dear

Sing me back to days of old

A melody of Christmas told

A babe in the nativity

Gifts under the Christmas tree

How fast the years have slipped out of my grasp

Oh Sing me back

With all of us singing along
