Christmas Needs Love to Be Christmas

The Christmas tree is decorated, all the shopping's done

Stockings line the fireplace one by one

All the presents look so pretty, tied with brightly colored bows

All these things help make this season still everybody knows

Christmas needs love to be Christmas

Christmas needs hearts for a joy

Carolers singing, silver bells ringing and laughter for each girl and boy

Christmas needs love to be Christmas

It's all that we all need more of year in, year out, I'm left with no doubt

The greatest of all gifts is love

Christmas needs love to be Christmas

Christmas needs hearts for a joy

Carolers singing, silver bells ringing and laughter for each girl and boy

Christmas needs love to be Christmas

It's all that we all need more of year in, year out, I'm left with no doubt

The greatest of all gifts is love
