The Muppet Christmas Carol is right up there on my list of favorite Christmas movies. I’ve loved the Muppets since childhood, and their adaptation of Charles Dickens’s classic tale is wonderfully done. The music is always one of my favorite things about the Muppets, and the songs in this movie don’t disappoint. I featured “One More Sleep ’til Christmas” in last year’s countdown, and this year I’ve picked “It Feels Like Christmas.”
“It Feels Like Christmas” from The Muppet Christmas Carol
It’s in the singing of a street corner choir
It’s going home and getting warm by the fire
It’s true, wherever you find love
It feels like Christmas
A cup of kindness that we share with another
A sweet reunion with a friend or a brother
In all the places you find love
It feels like Christmas
It is the season of the heart
A special time of caring
The ways of love made clear
It is the season of the spirit
The message, if we hear it
Is make it last all year
It’s in the giving of a gift to another
A pair of mittens that were made by your mother
It’s all the ways that we show love
That feel like Christmas
A part of childhood we’ll always remember
It is the summer of the soul in December
Yes, when you do your best for love
It feels like Christmas
It is the season of the heart
A special time of caring
The ways of love made clear
It is the season of the spirit
The message, if we hear it
Is make it last all year
It’s in the singing of a street corner choir
It’s going home and getting warm by the fire
It’s true, wherever you find love
It feels like Christmas
It’s true, wherever you find love
It feels like Christmas
It feels like Christmas
It feels like Christmas
