And the man who would be Santa slips into the room
|
And the hour of daylight's yet to come but he hopes they don't wake too soon
|
All the presents wrapped in paper and tied with a bow
|
The children sleep upstairs and Santa works below
|
And he can hear the children dreaming
|
|
[Chorus]
|
And he says
|
All I want is for you to have
|
A life you love and live
|
Take from me all I have to give
|
Because you are in my heart
|
|
And the man who would be Santa tells his son to write
|
And to call him if he needs him in the middle of the night
|
Don't you worry don't you cry now you'll do just fine
|
Your mother and I love you
|
We think about you all the time
|
And he can see the train is leaving
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Now the old man sits and tells of days when time stood still
|
The hours always seem to fade but the memory never will
|
All the love that you gave me
|
All the dreams in the night
|
And I just want to thank you while the day's still light
|
But I can see the sun is setting
|
|
[Chorus]
|
