What Christmas Should Be

What wishes will you make
When the season is near
Will your dreams be the same
As they were last yearWill you ask for a little
Will you ask for a lot
And when you make your list
Will there be something you forgotHow about peace on earth
It can't be bought or sold
How about peace this Christmas
And someones hand to holdHow about love in our hearts
And hope for you and me
How about peace on earth
That's what Christmas should beWill you get all the things
That you've been waiting for
Snowfall and presents
Choir singing at your doorThis season will be perfect
Like those picture postcards seem
But is that the answer
Is that what Christmas really meansHow about peace on earth
It can't be bought or sold
How about peace this Christmas
And someones hand to holdHow about love in our hearts
And hope for you and me
How about peace on earth
That's what Christmas should beWhat would you sacrifice
What would you give away
For the greatest gift of all
On Christmas dayHow about peace on earth
It can't be bought or sold
How about peace this Christmas
And someones hand to holdHow about love in our hearts
And hope for you and me
How about peace on earthHow about peace on earth
It can't be bought or sold
How about peace this Christmas
And someones hand to holdHow about love in our hearts
And hope for you and me
How about peace on earth
How about peace on earth
That's what Christmas should beMerry Christmas
