There's a magic light in the stars tonight

  There's a whisper of love in the silence of

Dm7            G
Gently falling snow

        F                       Dm7
There's cookies and milk on the table

G                       C    D C
Ribbons on bright candy canes

    F     Em           Dm
And every child who is able

He comes only one night of the year

A hint of pinewood in the air

G        C                    F
  As the church bell chimes I count twelve times

    Dm7               G
And slip into my easy chair

             F              Dm7
To watch the fire die to an ember

    G                   C   F G
And drift into a winter dre-e_eam

     F                  Dm7
Of a magical night in December

And faith in a sight unseen

There's no telling who will appear

He comes only one night of the year

It comes only one night of the year
