I won't be here from December 19th to January 3rd because of Winter break, so I wanted to do 3 last lyric challenges before 2020 ends 1. Oh, all the lights are shining so brightly everywhere, and the sound of children's laughter fills the air, and everyone is singing. I hear those sleigh bells ringing! Santa, won't you bring me the one I really need? Won't you please bring my baby to me? 2. Dashing through the snow. In an one-horse open sleigh. O'er the fields we go, laughing all the way! Ha hA Ha! 3. Christmas Eve will find me, where the love light gleams, and I'll be home for Christmas. If only in my dreams
