All the brightly colored paper
Lies around the Christmas tree
While mothers shake their heads
And pack the decorations carefully
All the little children know
That Monday's just another day
They feel a little sad to think
That Santa's gone away
But Christmas will return
And joyful hearts like candles burn
With love for all the little ones
In countries far and near
And if we live and learn
To show the world our real concern
Then Christmas will return every year
Every yеar
Take a little Christmas spirit
With you into each nеw year
Make a little Christmas spirit
Last 'til Easter Sunday's here
Take it with you through the summer (summer)
'Til the autumn leaves arrive
In the bitter cold of winter
The spark is still alive
Christmas will return
And joyful hearts like candles burn
With love for all the little ones (little ones)
In countries far and near (yeah)
And if we live and learn
To show the world our real concern
Then Christmas will return (yes it will)
Every year
Every year
(Oh, summers) yeah
(Love for the little ones)
For (if we live and learn)
(Ah) ooh (yeah)
Take it with you through the summer
'Til the autumn leaves arrive
In the bitter cold of winter
See, the spark is still alive
Oh, oh, Christmas will return (it will return)
Joyful hearts like candles burn
With love for all the little ones
In countries far and near
If we live and learn
To show the world my real concern
(Christmas will return)
Christmas will return (hey, oh)
Every year, oh (every year)
Every year
