The Kid in Me Songtext
von Phillips, Craig & Dean

Though it′s barely December
I can already see
The snow on the sidewalks
And lights on the tree
There's something ′bout Christmas
Leads me to believe
A child is still living in me

Oh, I can still remember
What it used to be like
Dreaming of reindeer
On Christmas Eve night
One eye half open
The other asleep
It's funny what I chose to believe

It happens each time
December draws near
A child is reborn
This time of year


When I start wrapping the presents
And hanging the lights
Start making a list
And checking it twice
Start hanging the holly and the mistletoe
And off I go
Back to what I used to be
It's funny how Christmas
Brings out the kid in me

Sneaking into the kitchen
Past the fireplace light
Eating holiday cookies
In the middle of night
I stare out the window
Just to see all the lights
The stars are shining brighter tonight

When the family′s together
Swapping stories of old
Don′t they seem to get better
The more that they're told
And like all of the others
I fight to resist
Aunt Molly′s yearly holiday kiss

It's happens each time
December draws near
A child is reborn
This time of year


When I start wrapping the presents
And hanging the lights
Start making a list
And checking it twice
Start hanging the holly and the mistletoe
And off I go
Back to what I used to be
It′s funny how Christmas
Brings out the kid in me

No matter how old you are
No matter how long it's been
You′re never too far away
From the child that lives within

Start wrapping the presents
And hanging the lights
Start making a list
And checking it twice
Start hanging the holly and the mistletoe
And off I go
Back to what I used to be
It's funny how Christmas
Brings out the kid in me

Start wrapping the presents
And hanging the lights
Start making a list
And checking it twice
Start hanging the holly and the mistletoe
And off I go
Back to what I used to be
It's funny how Christmas
Brings out the kid in me

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Brings out the kid in me
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
It′s good to see the family

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Come and see the Christmas tree
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Eating holiday cookies
Merry Christmas
How I love this time of year

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
It′s good to see old friends again
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Brings out the kid in me, oh, oh
