everything is different but nothing has changed
and now we're going in circles, it's christmas again
well can't you hear the sleighbells ring, all our voices unite
and look up to the heavens to see the stars shining bright
ooh
everybody needs a little lovin' around christmas time
somehow you gotta know you're gonna be alright
oh do you remember how it used to be
sitting under the christmas tree
in your heart, you'll find the season
ooohyeah
oh
we've been blessed by the children, black, yellow, and white
they believe in the things we try to deny
oh, so throw down your weapons, but continue to fight
and let's love one another on this holy night
oh
everybody needs a little lovin' around christmas time
somehow you gotta know you're gonna be alright oh, oooh
do you remember how it used to be
sitting under the christmas tree
in your heart you'll find the season
o reach down (oh won't you reach down inside) inside
your heart (your heart) and see (see) all the love
o in your heart (in your heart) you'll find the reason
everybody needs a little lovin' (everybody needs a little lovin')around christmas time (around chritmas time)
somehow you gotta know you're gonna be alright oh, you're gonna be alright
do you remember how it used to be
me lovin' you and you lovin' me
in your heart you'll find the season
oh
everybody needs a little lovin' (everybody needs a little lovin) around christmas time (around christmas time)
sohoh somehow you gotta know you're gonna be alright (somehow you got to know you're gonna be alright)
everybody needs a little lovin' around christmas time (around christmas time)
somehow you gotta know you're gonna be alright (if you know you're gonna be alright)
everybody needs a little lovin' around christmas time (ahh need's a little lovin' 'round christmas time)
somehow you gotta know you're gonna be alright (somehow you gotta know, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
everybody needs a little lovin' around christmas time (ooooooh)
somehow you gotta know you're gonna be alright (oh ooooooohh gonna be alright)
everybody needs a little lovin' around christmas time (around christmas time oh)
somehow you gotta know you're gonna be alright (you're gonna be alright)
yet another hanson masterpiece. i hope this one becomes a christmas standard, it's really pretty. all three take turns on the lead, and there are great harmonies on the "o reach down inside..." part.
