He was born so far away So the story's told We remember christmas day When winter days grow cold With the time it passes by We put away the trim Then we live and wonder why We can't remember him The christmas star shines once a year And then it fades away Keep the spirit in your heart It's christmas everyday (christmas everyday) It's not the bells and it's not the snow And it's not the gifts we get But he was born so long ago It's easy to forget Peace on earth, goodwill to men But men can't go alone We get lost along the way But he can bring us home Remember him throughout the year Without the star above He left us all a christmas gift He left the gift of love The christmas star shines once a year And then it fades away Keep the spirit in your heart And it's christmas everyday
