life can be like December snow Time, take this sadness from me Time, bring my heart back safely Hold on to warm September 'Cause life can be like December
Do you remember long ago And how we loved when we were children Let's be like children this Christmas time And if you say that you'll be mine Then all
The nights are colder now Maybe I should close the door And anyway the snow has covered all your footsteps And I can follow you no more The fire still
In the quiet of Christmas morning In the peace of Christmas dawn The child that is the future Will see the earth reborn When we take our Christmas journey
The star of Bethlehem was shining Across a Palestinian sky The Church of the Nativity was crying And we all looked on, who can tell me why? Where are
I saw your picture in the paper I didn't know your name But the pain was there for all to see As the snow turned to rain I saw your picture didn't know
In the bleak midwinter Frosty wind may blow Earth stood hard as iron Water like a stone Snow had fallen, snow on snow Snow on, snow on snow In the bleak
The spirit of Christmas is the spirit of love Still there when the innocence has gone But we have each other we laugh and we cry The cares of the world
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas Just like the ones I used to know Where the tree tops glisten and children listen To hear sleigh bells in the snow
A ray of hope flickers in the sky A tiny spark lights up way up high All across the land dawns a brand new morn This comes to pass when a child is born
So this is Xmas And what have you done Another year over And a new one just begun And so this is Xmas I hope you have fun The near and the dear ones
