Story behind the song
Written in 1985 first Christmas for my oldest daughter. THen updated for my second daughter. My wife has always hated my music and she said why don't you write a song about your daughter. I thought hmm. Good idea. She was only 1 years old. So it was Taras time of year. When her sister Bethany came 3 years later I had to work her into the song.
Lyrics
Christmas Time Again
Words/Music Tony DeLecce 1985
It?s Christmas time again,
It?s Tara?s time of Year
When little girls and little boys
Wait for Santa to appear
And they hope in their hearts
He?ll be kind to them
Because they?ve tried to be good
It?s not easy to be good
As the years go by
Even though we know we should
It?s easy to be nice
As the holidays draw near
But the Christmas spirit is gone
When the new year moves on.
So open your hearts
And let Christmas in
And keep it all year through
It?s not asking too much to keep in touch
With the little child inside of you
It?s Christmas time again,
It?s Bethany?s time of Year
When little girls and little boys
Wait for Santa to appear
And they hope in their hearts
He will be kind to them
Because they?ve tried to be good
It?s not easy to be good
As the years go by
Even though we know we should
