Count down from three
And the tree
At the capitol shines bright
And Christmas starts tonight in the city

At once the cranes
And the planes
Turn to ornaments up high
I can't believe my eyes
They look so pretty

But oh, things are changing
So hard to let them go
But everything looks better in the snow

Years have gone
And moving on
Proves difficult to do
And harder, still, it's true
Come December

With stockings hung
And carols sung
I don't want to feel blue
But sometimes still I do
I remember
That oh, things are changing
So hard to lеt them go
But everything looks bеtter in the snow

And things are always changing
Some fast and some are slow
So take this present moment
As you go

[Instrumental Break]

Count down from three
And the tree
At the capitol shines bright
And Christmas starts tonight
In the city
