We've jingle bells, the tinsel's up and all the balls are rigged
We're getting on that Christmas train all aboard the Collabamajig
We're picking up speed and stoking the fire to make it there in time
Twitch streamers got their tickets They've already been picked and now they're matched with their partners in crime
Tasked to write a jingle before they can go mingle with the Crowd who await their songs
We’ll be getting very festive ‘cause the tunes they make are best when they're enjoyed by everyone
As we approach the destination see the songs in their formation coming closer to the goal
We’ll be singing and a dancing round the tree as we’re advancing to a Christmas concert at the North Pole
Can you hear the sleigh bells ringing?
Snow Falls down the elves are singing
Christmas songs we will be bringing
Here we go It's Christmas...
'Soon be time for the revealing
Raising funds for those need healing
Streamer songs with Christmas cheer, so here we go It's Christmas time!

I can hear the bells
It’s that time of year
The snow is falling, friends are calling
All around
Though you’re miles away
I know you’ll be here
Your hand in mine at Christmas time
It won’t be long now
(interlude)
Summer’s what they always
Seem to sing about
But I can’t wait for chilly days
By the fire
I’ll be in your arms
As we sing out loud
We’ll play along to Christmas songs
With the choir
Oh, oh
Chorus:
Darling I’m missing you
But I will be there soon
And when the world turns white
You’ll be wrapped in my arms so tight
(interlude)
Meet me underneath
The mistletoe
I’m waiting for, your kiss and more
On Christmas eve
What I’m wishing for
Is your hand to hold
Don’t need no gifts, it’s you I miss
That’s all I need
Chorus
Darling I’m missing you
But I will be there soon
And when the world turns white
You’ll be wrapped in my arms so tight
Darling I’m missing you
But I will be there soon
And when the world turns white
You’ll be wrapped in my arms so tight

The first snowflake falls from the sky
Feel like this whole year just passed me by
And I tried my best to keep in touch
But this year has just been really tough
I can’t wait to see you this Christmas
I can’t wait to feel your embrace
I can’t wait to make fun of your ugly sweater
I just can’t wait to see your face.
Time for caring and for sharing
The reminder of good in people's hearts
It’s time for change and reflection
The year we faced has been so hard
I can’t wait to see you this Christmas
I can’t wait to feel your (warm) embrace
I can’t wait to make fun of your ugly sweater
I just can’t wait to see you
I can’t wait to see you this Christmas
I can’t wait to feel your embrace
I can’t wait to make fun of your ugly sweater
I just can’t wait to see your face.
Embrace!
Merry christmas

The falling snow dampens the crunch of accidents on the ice.
The story of Santa tricks the kids into playing nice.
The mistletoe exploits its host for nutrients out of view,
Oh, Christmastime's the worst, unless I'm with you
You chase away the cold that bites my fingers with your hands.
You insulate me from my relatives and their demands.
If you ever were to leave me, I don't know what I'd do,
'Cause Christmastime's the worst, unless I'm with you.
Some might say I'm codependent, I don't care, I still love you.
And my favorite present is always just to have you there and be there for you too.
Maybe I don't get it, the lights are hard to see through,
But all the colors make sense when I'm with you.
The cat hunts the ornaments and mauls the seasonal decor.
The dog scarfs down the holly and throws up all over the floor.
But I know where I can turn to find someone who'll help me through,
Yeah, Christmastime's the worst, Christmastime's the worst,
Yeah, Christmastime's the worst, unless I'm with you.
Christmastime's the worst, unless I'm with you.

Verse 1:
The sun is sinking quickly feel the chilly
Air I breathe, the smoke through the trees
Light I see Draws me
One candle glowing Warmth is flowing
Rising, growing as the snow is
Softly flowing Light guides me
Chorus
Draw me, Like a moth to a flame, Draw me
Guide me, I’ll come slowly, come tame, Guide me
Verse 2:
Walking slowly feel my bones they
Ache as only time it holds
And so in cold I boldly move on
The hope and dream it pulls at me to bend and weave
The candles’ speed and flame it seems
To move with me
Chorus
Boldly, call to me with your song, Boldly
Move me, supple and strong, Move me
Bridge
Move me
Chorus
Draw me, like a moth to a flame, Draw me
Guide me, I’ll come slowly, come tame, Guide me
Boldly, call to me with your song, Boldly
Move me, supple and strong, Move me

Verse 1:
Outside the window, there’s falling snow
Logs in the fireplace, fires aglow
Do you hear the carols that we sing?
Do you see the bells that we ring?
Chorus 1:
Christmas bells are ringing, lights are glowing bright
The choir is singing on this quiet night
Doesn’t matter where you are
The candles gleam just for you
Verse 2:
Garlands around, green, silver, and red
Warm blend of spices from the gingerbread
Do you see the stars up in the sky?
Just make a wish tonight
Chorus 2:
Christmas bells are ringing, lights are glowing bright
The choir is singing on this quiet night
Doesn’t matter where you are
The candles gleam just for you
(violin solo)
Final chorus:
Christmas bells are ringing, lights are glowing bright
The choir is singing on this quiet night
Doesn’t matter where you are
The candles gleam just for you
The candles gleam just for you.

In the light of the moon
The night hums a sweet tune
In the wind singing
Have yourself a...
Taste of the good life
Before the sunlight
Wraps it's warmth like a scarf
On the morning frost
I was out in the cold,
Left out and Alone
And the colours did fade
Every Christmas that came and went...
Away with the time
but there's much more to life
Step out of the usual
This Christmas, let's make it beautiful
Joy on high, in windows
Reach high on tippy toes
Place a star in the sky
Illuminate the night
Sometimes I wonder
But I don't know why
The lights shine much brighter with you by my side
I know this winter the magic's alive
The colour and light, burning wild
A Christmas like this for the first time in a while
It's colder outside but I don't feel the bite
A fire inside climbs to daring new heights
Stand up, step back and let yourself fall
We'll make Christmas beautiful
Tis the season
Stars are blazing
Christmas I believe in
We'll make it Beautiful

25th day on a cold December
Even though you’re not here it’s like we’re together
Cause I’m sitting on my sofa
And I know that you are too
Distance in miles is so much further
Than the picture on the screen that brings you nearer
And the stars above are oh so clear
Are you watching them too
As the seasons change the skies get dark
And it’s easy to feel like you’re falling hard, falling hard
One light is just enough to stop the rush of cold coming in again
One light there’s a guide to take you home are you listening
One light to feel like somebody’s out there
So on all of the dark nights just look for the one light
On all the dark nights just look for the one light, look for the one light
Feeling far from home in a different city
Where the pavement cracks are filled with ambitions
But it’ll pass as soon as
We speak on the phone
Skating over ice that feels so thin
Cause the day seems to end at 3pm
And there’s so much to do
And time goes slow but faster every year
As the seasons change the skies get dark
And it’s easy to feel like you’re falling hard, falling hard
One light is just enough to stop the rush of cold coming in again
One light there’s a guide to take you home are you listening
One light to feel like somebody’s out there
So on all of the dark nights just look for the one light
On all the dark nights just look for the one light, look for the one light
Look for the one light
When it’s minus degrees and fire can’t heat your bones
When you’re sat there thinking how you feel so alone
When the roast potatoes don’t taste the same
Cause the company isn’t at the table
And you’re wondering if you’re okay just look outside until you find
One light is just enough to stop the rush of cold coming in again
One light there’s a guide to take you home are you listening
One light to feel like somebody’s out there
So on all of the dark nights just look for the one light
On all the dark nights just look for the one light, look for the one light

Verse 1:
A frosty morning
The crisp white sky
A harsh wind howling
Between you and I
Chorus:
There’s only one thing
Really on my mind
Will you be home for Christmas
This Time?
Verse 2:
The decorations
Pine trees of green
Don’t look the same dear
Now that you’re not here with me
Chorus:
There’s only one thing
Really on my mind
Will you be home for Christmas
This Time?
Bridge:
I can see you
Walking next to me
But is this real or
Just a Fantasy?
While you’re on my mind
There’s one thing I can’t deny
I want you home
For Christmas tonight
Breakdown:
A frosty morning
Pine trees of green
I must move on now
It’s not fair to me
Final Chorus:
I remember that one thing
Always on my mind
I guess you won’t be home for christmas
This time

don't let the cold in
keep the fire going
can you hear the wind howling?
don't let the cold in
(PRE CHORUS)
and the snow, it settles
and the warm light, it grows
(CHORUS)
and the silent nights, they fly by, they fly by
The cold winter days, washed with gray, fade away x2
Don't let cold in
Everyone is sleeping
I can hear the world dreaming
Don't let the cold in
(PRE CHORUS)
and the snow, it settles
and the warm light, it grows
(CHORUS)
and the silent nights, they fly by, they fly by
The cold winter days, washed with gray, fade away x2

Cold wind sings and church bells ring through trees along the lane
Sparkling lights of red and white through frosty window panes
Joyful laughter mingles with the crunch of snow and ice
Sweet hot apple cider laced with cranberries and spice
Peppermint and icy snowflakes melting on your tongue
Flames flicker in the fireplace, the carols yet unsung
Cozy blankets tucked around the ones you hold so dear
Blissful smiles as we share our gifts from far and near
Raise a glass to Christmas and the moments we create
Let’s take it with us through the year, the love we celebrate
May all our memories glow like the spark within our hearts
If we cherish one another, we’ll never be apart
Reminiscing, friendly kissing beneath the mistletoe
Hands entwined, sparkling wine, and fragrant candles glow
Warm embraces, smiling faces illuminate the night
Sleepy children head to bed, to dream of morning light
This is all i wish for
This is all i wish for
This is all i wish for
This is all i wish for
Raise a glass to Christmas and the moments we create
Let’s take it with us through the year, the love we celebrate
May all our memories glow like the spark within our hearts
If we cherish one another, we’ll never be apart

I like to play in the snow
says the boy to the winter hare
where does your brown fur go?
to lie with the sleeping bear?
hey, little hare, playing hide and seek
come and play games with me
hey there’s my ma by the window, see
lit up by the christmas tree
the night is light, the snow shines bright
the moon soaks all the ground in white
the day is grey
and we go out to play
I like to play in the snow
says the boy to the winter hare
where does your brown fur go?
where is the summer fair?
I like to hide in the snow
says the hare to the winter sky
wearing my winter coat
away from hunting eyes
the light is slow, the sun settles low
the shadows here have far to go
the trees are all thin with the night,
the night coming in
what shall we eat for the winter feast?
eat bird and beast and wine
come and pull up a tiny seat
you can have some of mine
I’ve got a mouth full of teeth
said the boy to the winter hare
what shall we eat for the winter feast?
far from the summer fair?
the summer is gone, the dark settles long
the wind sings a primeval song
we’ll sit tight beside the fire bright
I like to play
I like to play
I like to play in the snow
says the boy to the winter hare
where does your brown fur go
leaving your bones all bare?

Buying gifts for ones I love
it fills me with such happiness inside
it’s the spirit of giving
Making eggnog with rum
sippin wine til night comes
all kinds of grown up fun but
There’s nothing like Christmas as a child
Now I know too much
the magic disappears
But I remember how it
felt all those years
Coming down on Christmas morning
See that Santa’s coming
Feel the miracle that’s happening
There’s nothing like
Christmas as a child
Hear the reindeer sleighin
Play the games we’re playing
It’s the best day of the year oh
There’s nothing like
Christmas as a child
Getting together with the family having a little bit of time that’s free decorate that Christmas tree what a jolly time for you and me
Put your ugly Christmas sweater on Christmas music all day long Christmas movie marathon but there’s nothing like Christmas as a child
So much work to do,
trees to trim, cards to send,
It’s all worth it in the end,
making magic for them
Coming down on Christmas morning
See that Santa’s coming
Feel the miracle that’s happening
There’s nothing like
Christmas as a child
Hear the reindeer sleighin
Play the games we’re playing
It’s the best day of the year oh
There’s nothing like
Christmas as a child
