[00:00.00] 作曲 : ONeill
[00:13.03][00:15.40]In an old city bar[00:15.40]
[00:16.46][00:18.05]That's never too far
[00:19.32][00:21.93]From the places that gather
[00:22.86][00:25.09]The dreams that have been
[00:26.02][00:28.53]In the safety of night
[00:29.36][00:31.63]With its old neon light
[00:32.61][00:35.75]It beckons to strangers
[00:36.03][00:38.57]And they always come in
[00:39.08][00:42.31]And the snow it was falling
[00:42.53][00:44.74]Neon was calling
[00:45.32][00:48.28]The music was low
[00:48.93][00:51.86]And the night Christmas
[00:52.89][00:55.85]EveAnd here was the danger
[00:56.35][00:59.30]That even with strangers
[00:59.53][01:02.04]Inside of this night
[01:02.62][01:09.18]It's easier to believe
[01:19.11][01:21.78]Then the door opened wide
[01:22.74][01:25.05]And a child came inside
[01:25.76][01:28.22]That no one in the bar
[01:29.07][01:31.22]Had seen there before
[01:32.40][01:34.79]And he asked did we know
[01:37.98][01:35.62]That outside in the snow
[01:38.91][01:41.39]That someone was lost
[01:41.88][01:44.93]Standing outside our door
[01:45.48][01:47.94]Then the bartender gazed
[01:48.64][01:51.06]Through the smoke and the haze
[01:52.12][01:54.11]Through the window and ice
[01:55.23][01:57.25]To that corner streetlight
[01:58.34][02:00.15]Where standing alone
[02:01.46][02:03.83]By a broken pay phone
[02:04.66][02:07.55]Was a girl, the child said
[02:07.86][02:10.65]Could no longer get home
[02:11.31][02:13.60]And the snow it was falling
[02:14.66][02:17.03]Neon was calling
[02:18.05][02:28.43]Bartender turned and said, "Not that I careBut how would you know this?"
[02:28.29][02:40.44]The child said, "I've noticedIf one could be home, they'd be already there"
[02:50.88][02:56.01]Then the bartender came out, from behind the bar
[02:56.97][03:01.82]And in all of his life, was never that far
[03:02.98][03:08.18]And he did something else that he thought no one saw
[03:06.11][03:14.51]When he took all the cash from the register drawer
[03:15.55][03:20.30]Then he followed the child to the girl across the street
[03:21.65][03:26.40]And we watched from the bar as they started to speak
[03:28.08][03:33.55]Then he called for a cab then he said, "J.F.K."
[03:34.20][03:39.16]Put the girl in the cab and the cab drove away
[03:40.60][03:46.10]And we saw in his hand, that the cash was all gone
[03:46.55][03:53.37]From the light that she had wished upon
[03:54.82][03:58.31]If you want to arrange it
[03:58.96][04:01.55]This world you can change it
[04:07.81][04:02.23]If we could somehow make this Christmas thing last
[04:09.50][04:10.04]By helpin' a neighbour
[04:11.77][04:13.62]Even a stranger
[04:15.41][04:17.53]To know who needs help
[04:19.16][04:22.86]You need only just ask
[04:34.53][04:36.17]Then he looked for the child
[04:37.86][04:39.94]But the child wasn't there
[04:41.01][04:43.47]Just the wind and the snow
[04:43.64][04:46.87]Waltzing dreams through the air
[04:47.98][04:50.33]So he walked back inside
[04:50.63][04:52.69]Somehow different,I think
[04:54.50][04:56.68]For the rest of the night
[04:57.07][04:59.72]No one paid for a drink
[05:00.88][05:03.17]And the cynics will say
[05:04.51][05:06.52]That some neighbourhood kid
[05:07.82][05:09.52]Wandered in on some bums
[05:10.92][05:13.18]In the world where they hid
[05:14.17][05:16.45]But they weren't there
[05:17.44][05:19.43]So they couldn't see
[05:20.49][05:22.67]By an old neon star
[05:23.92][05:24.84]On that night,
[05:24.90][05:25.26]Christmas
[05:26.86][05:29.44]When the snow it was falling
[05:30.63][05:32.94]And neon was calling
[05:33.82][05:36.41]In case you should wonder
[05:37.49][05:39.82]In case you should care
[05:41.78][05:44.82]Why we on our own
[05:46.00][05:47.42]Never went home?
[05:48.77][05:51.62]On that night of all nights
[05:53.73][05:58.05]We were already there
