There's an Old Christmas Card in an old dusty trunk

And it brings back sweet memories dear to me

'Though it's faded and worn, it's as precious as the morn

When I found it 'neath our first Christmas tree



Chorus:

I thrill with every word, every line

Guess I'm always sentimental 'round this time

Pardon me if a tear falls among my Christmas cheer

It's the memory of an Old Christmas Card



(Recitation)

You know, I don't know why I get to feeling sentimental

about this time, every year

But every time I see a Christmas card,

I somehow can't help reminiscing

About the very first Christmas that you and I spent together

What a beautiful Christmas card you gave me that year

Why I know you must have looked through thousands of cards

To find that wonderful poem that still brings a tear to my eyes



Repeat chorus
