"Christmas In The Sand"
(Colbie Caillat / Kara Dioguardi / Jason Reeves)

I love Christmas in the snow
But Christmas in the sand, oh man
I tell you that's where it's at
Hawaiian tropic on my skin
Candy cane of peppermint, a hint
Of cocoa on my lips

[Chorus:]
It could've been the sun, it could've been the sea
It could've been my childhood fantasy
But I saw Santa in his bathing suit
Tryna catch a wave, but he tried too soon
He laughed so hard that he could barely breathe
And washed up next to me
He said "You look naughty, but I'm sure you're nice"
He was soaking wet, but he cracked a smile
With a present in his hand
He said it's Christmas in the sand

I must have had too much to drink
'Cause Rudolph's nose was shining green
I think
He was playing reindeer games on me
Santa only called him once
But you should have seen him run, so fast
They were gone in a dash

[Chorus:]
It could've been the sun, it could've been the sea
It could've been my childhood fantasy
But I saw Santa in his bathing suit
Tryna catch a wave, but he tried too soon
He laughed so hard that he could barely breathe
And washed up next to me
He said "You look naughty, but I'm sure you're nice"
He was soaking wet, but he cracked a smile
With a present in his hand
He said it's Christmas in the sand

[Bridge:]
Christmas in the sand, whoa, oh
Christmas in the sand, whoa, oh
Christmas in the sand, whoa, oh
Christmas in the sand, whoa, oh
Don't need your winter coat
Don't need you winter hat
Just grab the one you love and say you're never coming back

[Chorus:]
You see Santa in his bathing suit
Tryna catch a wave, but he tried too soon
He laughed so hard that he can barely breathe
It's what he did to me (what he dd to me)
He said "You look naughty, but I'm sure you're nice" (Sure you're nice)
He was soaking wet, but he cracked a smile
With a present in his hand
He said it's Christmas in the sand (Christmas in the sand)

[Outro:]
Christmas in the sand, whoa oh
Christmas in the sand, whoa oh
Christmas in the sand, whoa oh
I love Christmas in the sand
