Beautiful, Altogether

We are beautiful, when we're altogether

Round a table that could burst at the seams

Singing old melodies

That just live on the breeze

We are magical, when we're altogether

With the holly and the ivy in bloom

Share a present or two

With a warm merry tune

Decorating the room

I know that we've been untethered

But it's true, whatever the weather

We're beautiful when we're altogether

Just once a year

We'll gather here

And bring out all the joy of festive cheer

Familiar scenes

The same routines

Of paper crowns and mistletoe and old movies

We are beautiful, when we're altogether

Why don't you and I just drift back to shore?

Where the fireplace roars

From the rooftops we'll call

Merry Christmas to all!

I know that we've been untethered

Now come home, where there's always shelter

We're beautiful when we're all together
