Christmas Cookies With My Friend

Oh my, something so delightful
Christmas cookies we can share
Let's boil the kettle right away
So we can tuck into the fare

Mmm-mm, the ginger and the spice
The aroma very sweet
Nutty caramel, fruit roll, shortbread
Mint and chocolate, what a treat

All these dainties I would bake
If on you I called today
I'd place them in a pretty tin
Then knock upon your door and say

Oh my friend, there's something so delish
About a Christmas cup of tea
And how very more delightful
If it's shared by you and me
