Christmas In Your Heart

Story Behind The Song

I love Christmas songs from the 50's and 60's and wanted to write one that sounded like it was from that era.

Song Description

"Amazing song...perfectly done. Brings back the feeling when I was a kid coming back from my Aunt and Uncles house with my parents. Instantly puts you back in time when Family, Friends, and Love is all that mattered at Christmas instead of buying the next new thing that won't be played with by February. Congrats Ms. Ankley...Job well done. - Deb Roysdon / Hoosier Music News

Lyrics

Christmas In Your Heart
@2011 Julianne Ankley/Toil and Trouble Music

It's not under the tree
it's not over the door
you won't find it on the table
you can't buy it at the store

no tinsel, wreaths or shoppin' sprees'll take it's part
you've gotta find Christmas in your heart

It's been too many hours
turned into too many days
since I've seen a smile
on your melancholy face

just tell me what it takes and i will do my part
to help you find Christmas in your heart

a little believin', and givin' oh and lovin' so tenderly
and wishin' like I'm wishin'
baby won't you spend Christmas here with me

If you're feelin' cold
there's a chill in your soul
let me light you a fire
baby come on home

just tell me what it takes and I will do my part
and I'll help you find Christmas in your heart

solo

a little believin' and givin' and lovin' so tenderly
oh and wishin' like I'm wishin'
baby won't you spend Christmas here with me

If you're feelin' cold
there's a chill in your soul
let me light you a fire
baby come on home

you just tell me what it takes and I will do my part
to help you find Christmas in your heart
you just tell me what it takes it can't be that hard
and I'll help you find Christmas in your heart
