What christmas should be
What wishes will you make
When the season is near?
Will you dream to be the same
As you were las year?
Will you ask for a little?
Will you ask for a lot?
And when you make your list
Will there be something you forgot?
How 'bout peace on earth?
It can't be bought or sold
How about peace this christmas
And someones hand to hold
How about love in our hearts
And hope for you and me
How about peace on earth
That's what christmas should be
Will you get all the things
That you've been waiting for
Snowfall and presents
Choire singing at your door
This season will be perfect
Like those picture postcards seem
But is that the anwser
Is that what christmas really means
How 'bout peace on earth
It can't be bought or sold
How about peace this christmas
And someones hand to hold
How about love in our hearts
And hope for you and me
How about peace on earth
That's what christmas should be
What would you sacrifice
What would you give away
For the greatest gift of all
On christmas day
How about peace on earth
It can't be bought or sold
How about peace this christmas
And someones hand to hold
How about love in our hearts
And hope for you and me
How about peace on earth
How about peace on earth
It can't be bought or sold
How about peace this christmas
And someones hand to hold
How about love in our hearts
And hope for you and me
How about peace on earth
How about peace on earth
That's what christmas should be
Merry christmas
Merry christmas
Merry christmas
