Story behind the song
Written in 1985 for my daughter Tara's first Christmas and updated for my 2nd daughter Bethany.
Seems like yesterday to me! It is all accoustic as that is the way I played back then.
All these years later (2011) this song brings a lot of memories to me. And without question the greatest accomplishment of my life has been these two wonderful girls who are now young ladies. And I am blessed to have them in my life.
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
