about

I had always wanted to write a Christmas song but never got around to it. Here is my first attempt at writing something for the holiday season!

lyrics

This Christmastime, let's go somewhere new!
We'll hop on a plane, walk down 5th Avenue,
Or maybe save some money,
Just go to the zoo.

This Christmastime,
This Christmastime,
This Christmastime,
Let's go somewhere new!

This Christmastime, let's do something grand,
I hear those northern lights are gorgeous in Lapland,
Or maybe we'll use our money to lend someone a hand.

This Christmastime,
This Christmastime,
This Christmastime,
Let's do something new!

Let's do something new!
As long as it's with you!
Yeah let's do something new!
This Christmastime.
