My Christmas Carol for Today - Pentatonix - That's Christmas to Me

There are just eleven more days until Christmas, so today I am happy to share another of my "Christmas Carols" with you. This wonderful song is from Pentatonix - That's Christmas to Me at this link.

This song is all about Christmas memories - my memories of Christmas as a child center around time with family in our lake house where we always spent Christmas and lots of snow - because I grew up in Michigan. My memories as a mom revolve around time with my husband and children and now as a grandma it is all about time with family - and gifts as I LOVE giving gifts! What are your Christmas memories?

I have not heard this song before, so if you are like me and might like to sing along, here are the lyrics . . .

The fireplace is burning bright, shining all on meI see the presents underneath the good old Christmas treeAnd I wait all night 'til Santa comes to wake me from my dreamsOh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me
I see the children play outside, like angels in the snowWhile mom and daddy share a kiss under the mistletoeAnd we'll cherish all these simple things wherever we may beOh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me
I've got this Christmas song in my heart (song in my heart)I've got the candles glowing in the dark (oh)I'm hanging all the stockings by the Christmas treeOh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to meOh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me
I listen for the thud of reindeer walking on the roofAs I fall asleep to lullabies, the morning's coming soonThe only gift I'll ever need is the joy of familyOh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me
I've got this Christmas song in my heart (song in my heart)I've got the candles glowing in the dark (oh)I'm hanging all the stockings by the Christmas treeOh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to meOh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me
Oh, the joy that fills our hearts and makes us seeOh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me
I've got this Christmas song in my heartI've got the candles glowing in the darkAnd then for years to come we'll always know one thingThat's the love that Christmas can bringOh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me
