Story Behind The Song
Looking back to when I was a kid I think Christmas Eve was always my favourite part of the festive season - the anticipation, the exctiement! It's a feeling that I've lost now I'm an adult, so I thought I'd write a song to recapture it.

Lyrics
Christmas Eve
(Words and Music by Chris Ballard)
Verse 1
Wake up early in excitement,
Beginning to feel like a child.
Light the tree, draw back the curtains,
Snow falling but we?re warm inside.
Bridge 1
Grandma remembers your first Christmas at home,
Grandad wonders where on earth all the years go.
Chorus
Boughs of holly deck the hall,
On Christmas Eve, on Christmas Eve.
Stockings waiting on the wall,
On Christmas Eve, on Christmas Eve.
Verse 2
Eat choc and squeeze some presents,
Remember how it use to feel?
Close your eyes and wait for Santa,
We all know that he?s very real.
Bridge 2
Children stare at the night to spot Santa?s lights,
And these children, they won?t be sleeping tonight.
Chorus
Boughs of holly deck the hall,
On Christmas Eve, on Christmas Eve.
Stockings waiting on the wall,
On Christmas Eve, on Christmas Eve.
Middle
It?s Christmas! (x16)
Bridge 3
Children stare at the night to spot Santa?s lights,
And these children, they won?t be sleeping tonight.
Chorus
Boughs of holly deck the hall,
On Christmas Eve, on Christmas Eve.
Stockings waiting on the wall,
On Christmas Eve, on Christmas Eve.
