In the night was the dark | |
In the dark was the dream | |
In the dream was the child | |
And myself there unseen | |
In the book was the word | |
In the word there was truth | |
In the truth there was age | |
In the age there was youth | |
And I said to the child"Do your hands, they still bleed?After all of this timeDo you think there's still need?" | |
But the child only smiled | |
And said not a word | |
And the snow it came down | |
As if it hadn't heard | |
And all that night the snow came down | |
To heal the scars our lives had found | |
And the [Incomprehensible] that lay broken | |
And there upon that bridge of dreams | |
Across the night we walked unseen | |
With no words ever spoken | |
And then on through that night | |
We did walk for a while | |
And our steps turned to blocks | |
And the blocks turned to miles | |
Then we followed a path | |
For as far as we could | |
Till we found ourselves there | |
In an evergreen woods | |
There were thousands of candles | |
Upon every tree | |
It was beautiful but | |
There was one mystery | |
For with all of those candles | |
You must understand | |
That the only one lit | |
Was now there in his hand | |
And there upon that | |
Christmas scene | |
The candle wax of melted dreams | |
And the years they had taken | |
And as that snow did gently fall | |
We one by one relit them all | |
Till each dream was awakened | |
And there to that light | |
This young child showed to me | |
All the things that he dreamt | |
All the things that might be | |
How for everything given | |
That something is gained | |
Strike one match in the dark | |
And all the world's not the same | |
And then I asked that child"Why this night has a star?" | |
And he said, "So we'd knowThat we could see that far" | |
And these candles away | |
To that star's distant light | |
And it all came to me | |
Upon that long winter's night | |
That long winter's night | |
That long winter's night | |
And when I awoke | |
Well, the child he was gone | |
But somewhere in my mind | |
I believe he lives on | |
And somewhere in my life | |
Between here and the end | |
On a long winter's night | |
I will dream him again |
