And now,
Before...
The evening shadows fall.
Let's remember this December,
When we shared the best of all.

And now,
Before...
This Christmas season leaves,
Hold me close and let's exchange...
Those memories with us to keep.

Never had I felt so good,
With you.
Knowing we were meant to be,
Together.
And going through,
What we've gone through.

Never had each day seemed,
So fresh and new to me.
This feeling that I have for you...
Makes our happiness,
One no one can ever undo.
With you these days are the best they can be.

And now,
Before...
The evening shadows fall.
Let's remember this December,
When we shared the best of all.

And now,
Before...
This Christmas season leaves,
Hold me close and let's exchange...
Those memories with us to keep,
And believe they can remain...
To stay,
Forever!
