Lyrics:Brian Wilson Music:Brian Wilson The Christmas spirit grows with each new day And it's so close but seems so far away And yet it comes only once a year And 'fore you know it, it's already here The streets are filled with laughter And so many hearts are gay Everybody helps to make the spirit bright The houses turn on their Christmas lights at night It's worth the wait the whole year through Just to make happy someone like you And I'll never outgrow the thrill of Christmas day It's worth the wait the whole year through Just to make happy someone like you And I'll never outgrow the thrill of Christmas day It's worth the wait the whole year through Just to make happy someone like you
