歌詞

The week before Thanksgiving Day This town puts up its old display Streetlights hung with candy canes and bows The earlier it gets each year The scarcer is my Christmas cheer I guess I just like taking these things slow I really don't remember much Of Christmasses growing up Except the year the Beatles came to play On my record player that came from Sears That White Album filled my ears In 1968 on Christmas Day I haven't been to church since God knows when I'm not someone who usually attends Truth be told there's just two wishes On my list every Christmas Peace on earth and a snow storm now and then Now I pray that peace comes in our time It's hard enough to keep from crying When every bit of news just breaks your heart The same old stories, same old songs We dust them off when Christmas comes And for one day we just try to do our part And around here winter seems to come With rain and mud and bits of sun It's not exactly Currier and Ives I don't mind cold if it brings snow Alberta Clippers coem and go But a dursting would make everything all right Perhaps a Christmas eve from long ago Delivered Christmas day with knee-high snow It's something lost but not forgotten Like candy hidden in a stocking That makes me every year wish it were so Because Christmas is for children's joy For every single girl and boy That's the truth we come to understand But the memories that don't let go Like Beatles songs and falling snow Can make us feel innocent again And maybe next year we won't go insane When they rush to hang the bows and candy canes Because peace will shine in me and you From Bethlehem to Timbuktu Even if the forecast is for rain Because peace will shine in me and you From Bethlehem to Timbuktu Even if the forecast is for rain
