Comes the time for Christmas And I really have to ask If this is feeling merry How much longer must it last? I wish a one horse open sleigh Would come carry me away But I've been waiting here all day And one just hasn't come my way Now excuse me if I'm not being reverent But I was hoping for a miracle to hold me, wash me Save me from my righteous doubt as I watch helpless, and everybody sings If it's Chanukah or Kwanza Solstice, harvest or December twenty-fifth Peace on earth to everyone And abundance to everyone you're with La ha da da da da da Da da da da da da da da da da da La da da da da da da da La da da da da da da da da Laha da da da da Laha da da da da Comes the time for Christmas And as you raise your Yuletide flask There's like this feeling that you carry As if from every Christmas past It's as if each year it grows It's like you feel it in your toes And on and on your carol goes Harvesting love among your woes I want to buy into the benevolent And I was hoping for a miracle to hold me, wash me Make me know what it's about As the longing in me makes me want to sing Noel or Navidad Season celebration or just the end of the year Christmas can mean anything And I mean to keep its hope forever near Repeat la's.... As if a cold and frozen soul is warm to love By loves own hand So goes the prayer if for a day peace on earth And good will to man At twenty below the winter storm it billows But the fire is so warm inside And the children while nestled in their pillows Dream of St. Nicholas's ride And how the next day they'll get up and they will play In the still falling Christmas snow And together we'll celebrate forever In defiance of the winds that blow My god in heaven now I feel like I'm seven And the spirit calls to me as well As if Christmas had made the winter warmer Made a paradise from what was hell As if a cold and frozen soul is warm to love By loves own hand So goes the prayer if for a day peace on earth And good will to man.......
