A Celtic Christmas

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Every Christmas I remember,
Sleepless Christmas Eve nights;
I remember that our mantelpiece was covered
With stockings of green & white.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Every Christmas would find me dreaming
Of the presents beneath the tree,
I hoped every year for a Celtic strip,
That Santa would bring for me.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 On Saturdays before Christmas
My father and me, we would journey,
The snow covered streets of Glasgow
To watch Dalglish and the Celtic play.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Every Christmas brings back memories
Of playing football in the snow,
How we wish we could return once more
To our childhood of long ago.
