JFH Song Lyrics

  Artist List   /   Matthew West   /   The Heart of Christmas




12. Day After Christmas

The Heart of Christmas
by Matthew West



 

 

Here comes the letdown Christmas is over / Here comes
the meltdown, there goes the cheer / But before we have a
breakdown, let us remember / The light of the world is still
here // So, happy day after Christmas / And merry rest of
the year / Even when Christmas is over / The light of the
world is still here // Come January I’m ready for summer /
The Super Bowl’s over and I’ll settle for spring / Sometimes
we all need a change in the weather / But it won’t change
the reason we sing // So take down the stockings, take
back the sweaters / Take down the lights and the star
and the tree / But don’t let this world take your joy after
Christmas / Take joy to the world and just sing

Written by Matthew West / © 2011 Songs of Southside Independent Music Publishing / External Combustion Music
