We ll be together again lyrics

The season is upon us now A time for gifts and

Give me an old fashioned Christmas An old fashioned Christmas Family faces,

Singing carols, stringing popcorn Making footprints in the snow Memories, Christ

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire Jack Frost nipping at your

Frosted windowpanes Candles gleaming inside Painted candy canes on the tree San

When I was a leaner I sought truth night and day. I

Have yourself a merry little christmas, Let your heart be

I heard the bells on christmas day Their old familiar carols

I wouldn't trade Christmas, no, no, no, never would I Wouldn't

The snow is snowing and the wind is blowing But I

You better watch out You better not cry Better not pout I'm telling

Silent night, holy night All is calm, all is bright Round yon

The bells, the bells, ringing everywhere for the sound of

Come they told me, pa-rum pum pum pum A newborn King

(not frank's version, this is the traditional) On the (first) day

Clean Lyric

Paragraph Lyric

51

No tears, no fears,
Remember there's always tomorrow
So what if we have to part,
We'll be together again
Your kiss, your smile,
Are memories I'll treasure forever
So try thinking with your heart,
We'll be together again
Times when I know you'll be lonesome,
Times when I know you'll be sad
Don't let temptation surround you,
Don't let the blues make you bad
Someday, someway,
We both have a lifetime before us
For parting is not good-bye,
We'll be together again

No tears, no fears,   Remember there's always tomorrow   So what if we have to part,   We'll be together again   Your kiss, your smile,   Are memories I'll treasure forever   So try thinking with your heart,   We'll be together again   Times when I know you'll be lonesome,   Times when I know you'll be sad   Don't let temptation surround you,   Don't let the blues make you bad   Someday, someway,   We both have a lifetime before us   For parting is not good-bye,   We'll be together again
