Lyrics
Intro
Snowflakes gathering in the silent dawn
Old slippers and sleepy yawns
Stockings waiting, firewood stacked high
Dreams linger as the morning slides by
Verse 0
Before the ribbons, before the sleigh bells ring
There’s a place inside where hopeful voices sing
Little hands clasped, listening for the start
Wishing for a wonder buried deep in Santa’s heart
Verse 1
Waking up to chilly air and sugar on the floor
Grandpa's old records and a wreath on the door
A letter by the cocoa cup, a secret wish inside
Hoping that a little love survives this Christmastime
Pre-Chorus
Close your eyes, just breathe in
Feel the joy that's within
Let it fill up every part
Home is always where you start
Chorus
If you want to find the real Christmas
Don't look under the tree tonight
It's humming softly in the kindness
Beating gently in Santa's heart
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh, Santa's heart
Oh-oh, that's where you start
Verse 2
It's not the gold bows or the letters you wrote
It's in snow falling slow, in the warmth we show
Laughter by the fire, and wishes held tight
The magic's alive in believing eyes
Pre-Chorus
Take a moment, look around
There's a feeling to be found
Not in wrapping paper torn apart
But in the hope inside your heart
Chorus
If you want to find the real Christmas
Don't look under the tree tonight
It's humming softly in the kindness
Beating gently in Santa's heart
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh, Santa's heart
Oh-oh, that's where you start
Bridge
Candle glow shining through the windowpane
Sharing stories late at night, calling out old names
It's in promise kept, in hands we hold tight
A little bit of wonder at the end of every night
Chorus
If you want to find the real Christmas
You won't find it in colored lights
It's hiding inside every kindness
Dwelling deep in Santa's heart
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh, Santa's heart
Oh-oh, that's where you start
