Port De Grave Tonight

[Verse 1]
Every year at Christmas,
Out in Port De Grave
People come from everywhere
The children all behave
For the light-ing of the boats
Everyone arrives
Then the mayor flips a switch
And the harbour comes alive

{Chorus}
It’s Christmas in the Harbour, in Port De Grave tonight
A million bulbs light up the bay, what a wondrous sight
The boats are tied up to the dock, fireworks burn bright
It’s Christmas in the Harbour
In Port De Grave tonight

[Verse 2]
Every year at Christmas,
To Port De Grave they come
From here and there and everywhere
Where do they all come from?
They come to see the dazzling lights
Lighting up the town
They sing and dance and clap their hands
There's music all around

{Chorus}
It’s Christmas in the Harbour, in Port De Grave tonight
A million bulbs light up the bay, what a wondrous sight
The boats are tied up to the dock, fireworks burn bright
It’s Christmas in the Harbour
In Port DeDe Grave tonight

[Bridge]
It’s Christmas in the Harbour, and everything's alright
It's Christmas in the Harbour, in Port De Grave tonight!

[Verse 3]
Every year at Christmas,
Out in Port De Grave
The fishing boats all blow their horns
The children smile and wave
Some do a little shopping
Some stay to have a bite
It's Christmas in the Harbour
In Port De Grave tonight

{Chorus}
It’s Christmas in the Harbour, in Port De Grave tonight
A million bulbs light up the bay, what a wondrous sight
The boats are tied up to the dock, fireworks burn bright
It’s Christmas in the Harbour
In Port De Grave tonight

{Chorus}
It’s Christmas in the Harbour, in Port De Grave tonight
A million bulbs light up the bay, what a wondrous sight
The boats are tied up to the dock, fireworks burn bright
It’s Christmas in the Harbour
In Port De Grave tonight
It’s Christmas in the Harbour
In Port De Grave tonight
