Oh my sweet little darling
how fair you look tonight
The world is drifting gently
through starry winterlight
And all the love I have
is here for you to show
It shall be your companion
where ever you may go…
And you look so small — compared to it all
The nights are drawing in now, snow’s heavy on the ground
The candles burning brightly and outside there’s no sound
We wish for things we’ve wanted but not for things we need
These times are full of wonder, come x-mas, come! Godspeed…
An old man in the park
is pulling on his sleigh
He’s smiling as he looks up into the winter’s day
The sunlight’s shining brightly,
a promise in the air
The churchbells call the people, there’s singing everywhere
And the snow reflects — the dawning of a newborn star
Will we see the star this Christmas, will it guide us on our way
I will promise you, I will promise you that our love will find a way…
