The holiday season is a time to share
Our innermost feelings of respect and care
I love you much more than my words can convey
I know that I will until my dying day
Your smile is as brilliant as the tinsel’s glow
And pure as December’s freshly fallen snow
Your love is a treasure; a gift from afar
The answer to my wish on a fallen star.

No holly or mistletoe covered in dew
Could ever shine brighter than the heart in you
The lights on the tree sparkle just like your eyes
And both of these things have made me realize
My life would mean nothing, if you were not here
Each day that we share is like holiday cheer
You bring me more joy than my life’s ever known
I never want to spend one more night alone.

My dear, you’re an angel; my life’s Christmas wonder
My love for you could never be torn asunder
So, here in this moment, I’ll offer to thee
My heart and my soul throughout eternity
I kneel here before you to present this ring
Though, I cannot say what tomorrow will bring
I promise that I’ll always stay by your side
If you will say, “Yes,” to becoming my bride.
