Why Can't Every Day Be Like Christmas?

I hear the bells 
Saying christmas is near 
They ring out 
To tell the world 
That this 
Is the season of cheer 

I hear a choir 
Singing sweetly 
Somewhere 
And a glow 
Fills my heart 
I'm at peace 
With the world 
As the sound 
Of their singing 
Fills the air 

Oh 
Why can't every day 
Be like christmas 
Why can't that feeling 
Go on endlessly 
For if everyday 
Could be just 
Like christmas 
What a wonderful world 
This would be 

This would be 

I hear a child 
Telling Santa 
What to bring 
And the smile 
Upon his tiny face 
Is worth more to me 
Than anything
