They said there'll be snow
at Christmas
They said there'll be peace
on Earth
But instead it just kept
on raining
A veil of tears for the
Virgin birth
I remember one
Christmas morning
A winter's light
And the distant choir
And the peal of a bell and
that Christmas tree smell
And their eyes full of
tinsel and fire
They sold me a dream
of Christmas
They sold me a
Silent Night
They told me a fairy story
'Til I believed in the Israelite
And I believed in
Father Christmas
I looked to the sky with
excited eyes
'Til I woke with a yawn
in the first light of dawn
And I saw him and
through his disguise
I wish you a hopeful Christmas
I wish you a brave New Year
All anguish pain and sadness
Leave your heart
And let your road be clear
They said there'll be snow
at Christmas
They said there'll be peace
on Earth
Hallelujah Noel
Be it Heaven or ****
The Christmas we get
we deserve
