The Gift We're All Hoping To Open Lyrics

Stores are decked out for Christmas

The neighbors have put up their lights

Santa is ready for business

But I'm not in the mood tonight

I haven't gone shopping for presents

I haven't yet put up the tree

I'm starting to feel some resistance

For how Christmas should be

Maybe this Christmas we give ourselves

A break from the hustle and bustle and noise

And chill and relax and be good to ourselves

Cause the gift we're all hoping to open is joy

Should I go to the mall

Do I want to be waiting in lines

Dealing with traffic and parking and all

Does anyone sell any peace of mind

Maybe this Christmas we give ourselves

A break from the hustle and bustle and noise

And chill and relax and be good to ourselves

Cause the gift we're all hoping to open is joy

Well the family has gathered together

We're all drinking tea by the fire

Laughing and teasing each other

As the smiles keep growing wider

Maybe this Christmas we give ourselves

A break from the hustle and bustle and noise

And chill and relax and be good to ourselves

Cause the gift we're all hoping to open

The gift we're all hoping to open

The gift we're all hoping to open

Is joy
