There was a time when we all did believe |
|
In a god, in a stairway to heaven |
|
There was a time, we were younger and free |
|
When to laugh and to love meant to live |
|
Now we are blind for the beauty around us |
|
We take, but forgot how to give |
|
On the day before christmas |
|
Look around and all I see is trouble, all I see is pain |
|
Even on a holy day like christmas |
|
The time is near the people realize the lies, rise, organize to spread sweet love around the world, here we stand across the land, we join our hands on the day before christmas |
|
There was a sign out in the distance |
|
A star that is what we've been told |
|
There was a sign for love and assistance |
|
But the world that we live in turned cold |
|
Still we are fighting all over the planet |
|
Only for silver and gold |
|
On the day before christmas |
|
Look around and all I see is trouble... |
|
Will we understand? We have to believe |
|
We'll be free again if we learn how to love and forgive |
|
There's a man on a sleigh and he is on his way, |
|
And the children are singing |
|
There's a man on the moon and he'll come to you soon, |
|
And the bells will be ringing |
