It’s Carrie Underwood’s “Favorite Time of Year,” and she’s sharing her gift of music with everyone this season by releasing an extra song from her first Christmas album.
The bonus cut on My Gift, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart in October, is streaming exclusively on Amazon. It ranks at No. 4 out of the top five new streaming holiday songs of the year, through Nov. 26, according to MRC Data/Nielsen Music.
In an interview with Billboard about her Christmas set, Underwood explained how she strived to “create light in a dark year” with her holiday jingles and accompanying HBO Max special.
Check out the lyrics below.
yeah
Break out the tinsel
Unpack the lights
We’re about to bring on the merry and bright
I hear those jingle
Bells in the air
Ringing out the sound of joy everywhere
‘Tis the season we’ve been waiting for
(Waiting, don’t keep me waiting)
Can’t you feel it knocking at your door?
(Knock knock, it’s knocking at your door)
Love pouring out like the snow from the sky
Snuggled up together sitting by the fire
Oh, it’s magical, it’s my favorite time
Pretty little wishes tied up in a bow
And every little kiss is like we’re underneath the mistletoe
It’s music to my ears
Christmas is my favorite time of year
Stockings on chimneys
Angels on the trees
Sugar and cinnamon
It’s the little things
Blankets and movies
In black and white
Together they make up this colorful life
‘Tis the season we’ve been waiting for
(Waiting, don’t keep me waiting)
Oh, can’t you feel it knocking at your door?
(Knock knock, it’s knocking on the door)
Love pouring out like the snow from the sky
Snuggled up together sitting by the fire
Oh, it’s magical, it’s my favorite time
Pretty little wishes tied up in a bow
And every little kiss is like we’re underneath the mistletoe
It’s music to my ears
Christmas is my favorite time of year
(Christmas is my favorite time)
Christmas is my favorite time
Oh, don’t keep me waiting, yeah
Love pouring out like the snow from the sky
Snuggled up together sitting by the fire
Oh, it’s magical, it’s my favorite time
Pretty little wishes tied up in a bow
And every little kiss is like we’re underneath the mistletoe
It’s music to my ears
Christmas is my favorite time of year
(Christmas is my favorite time)
Christmas is my favorite time of year
Oh yes, it is
