That's Christmas To Me - Pentatonix

"That's Christmas To Me" is one of the best Christmas songs (the video to accompany it is pretty awesome too) I've heard in awhile (the whole album is pretty awesome).  It really got me to thinking about the Christmas season and how much Christmas music has always been a part of my life and Chelsea's life.  Music is a huge part of Christmas traditions.  This is a special Christmas to us, being that it is our first Christmas as a family.

We are going to post every day of Advent and continue through Christmas (Christmas end's January 6 for Epiphany) about Christmas songs that are special to us.  We had fun sitting down and coming up with the initial list of music that is important to us in this holiday season.  Join us in this journey.  Subscribe by email (look to your right) so you don't have to rely on your Facebook timeline to deliver these posts to you.


The fireplace is burning bright, shining along me
I see the presents underneath the good old Christmas tree
And I wait all night 'til Santa comes to wake me from my dreams
Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me

I see the children play outside, like angels in the snow
While mom and daddy share a kiss under the mistletoe
And we'll cherish all these simple things wherever we may be
Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me

I've got this Christmas song in my heart
I've got the candles glowing in the dark
I'm hanging all the stockings by the Christmas tree
Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me
Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me

I listen for the thud of reindeer walking on the roof
As I fall asleep to lullabies, the morning's coming soon
The only gift I'll ever need is the joy of family
Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me

I've got this Christmas song in my heart (song in my heart)
I've got the candles glowing in the dark
I'm hanging all the stockings by the Christmas tree
Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me
Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me

Oh, the joy that fills our hearts and makes us see
Oh, why? Cause that's Christmas to me

I've got this Christmas song in my heart
I've got the candles glowing in the dark
And then for years to come we'll always know one thing
That's the love that Christmas can bring
Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me

Songwriters

  1. That is awesome, but not a song I knew. Loved the video footage from their childhood! Thanks for sharing.
