Billy Eckstine - Christmas Eve

There's a candle in the window
There's a legend we believe
Santa, here's our plea, you can bet that he
wouldn't miss a Christmas Eve

There's a stocking on the fireplace
There are presents to receive
And there's mistletoe, where is Romeo?
Steals a kiss on Christmas Eve

In the corner, on a table
Underneath a shining star
Is the holy Christmas stable
And three wise men from afar

All this holiday contentment
All this love should never leave
We'd be doing right if we made each night
More like Christmas Eve

In the corner, on a table
Underneath a shining star
Is the holy Christmas stable
And three wise men from afar

All this holiday contentment
All this love should never leave
We'd be doing right if we made each night
More like Christmas Eve
