12 Days Till Christmas (Verse 1) {Harmonica intro} It's twelve days till Christmas, Snowflakes fallin' fast, I sit by the window, Remembering the past. Momma’s cinnamon cookies, Bakin’ in the air, Laughter and the music, Love was everywhere. (Chorus) Oh, twelve days till Christmas, Nostalgia wraps me tight, But ambitions got me restless, Chasin' dreams through the night. I remember every moment, Like stars that brightly shine, Twelve days till Christmas, But I'm running' out of time! (Verse 2) {Southern Drawl} The tree was all aglow, With ornaments so bright, We'd stay up late together, Sippin’ cocoa, oh what a sight. Dad would tell the stories, Of his childhood days, I long to find that magic, In the hustle and the craze. (Chorus) {Choral} Oh, twelve days till Christmas, Nostalgia wraps me tight, But ambition's got me restless, Chasin' dreams through the night. I remember every moment, Like stars that brightly shine, Twelve days till Christmas, But I'm runnin' out of time. (Bridge) {Southern Guitar Each jingle bell I hear, Brings a tear to my eye, I’m caught between a memory, And the dreams I have to fly. Will I find my way back, To that warm embrace? Or let the days just pass me, In this frantic, lonely race? (Chorus) Oh, twelve days till Christmas, Nostalgia wraps me tight, But ambition's got me restless, Chasin' dreams through the night. I remember every moment, Like stars that brightly shine, Twelve days till Christmas, But I'm runnin' out of time. (Outro) {Fiddle solo} So I'll hang up those memories, Like ornaments on the tree, Find a way to balance, What was and what will be. It's twelve days till Christmas, And I'm still on my quest, But I’ll carry that sweet memory, Of love that’s truly blessed.
