Jim Reeves - An Old Christmas Card lyrics

There's an Old Christmas Card in an old dusty trunk

And it brings back sweet memories dear to me

'Though it's faded and worn, it's as precious as the morn

When I found it 'neath our first Christmas tree

Chorus:

I thrill with every word, every line

Guess I'm always sentimental 'round this time

Pardon me if a tear falls among my Christmas cheer

It's the memory of an Old Christmas Card

(Recitation)

You know, I don't know why I get to feeling sentimental

about this time, every year

But every time I see a Christmas card,

I somehow can't help reminiscing

About the very first Christmas that you and I spent together

What a beautiful Christmas card you gave me that year

Why I know you must have looked through thousands of cards

To find that wonderful poem that still brings a tear to my eyes

Repeat chorus
