Country Christmas
Snow is falling faster now
And dusting on a hill
Skaters on the river
Gentle dancers in the chill
The children's laughter ringing
As they overturn there sleighs
Waiting for a country Christmas day

The chimneys hold the promise
Of a friendly fire inside
And so it's after bedtime
All the children's eyes are wide
There might be cakes and short bread
On a shiny silver train
Waiting for a country Christmas day

Christmas in the country
Like another time and place
I see it in the little things
In every smiling face
It's crystal nights and far of lights
And children count the days
Country Christmas and love will lead the way

Dogs run after snowflakes
In a never ending chase
Soft lights trough the window
Foster's dalycurtis lay's
And reunited loved ones
Who've been far to long away
Waiting for a country Christmas day
Christmas in the country
Like another time and place
I see it in the little things
In every smiling face
It's crystal nights and far of lights
And children count the days
Country Christmas and love will lead the way
Country Christmas and love will lead the way
