Christmas Dreams
Star lights, shinning so bright
Filling the sky with beauty tonight.
While on this evening blows a breeze,
Snow falls from nearby trees.
Looking down at the world below,
Filling these streets was not a single soul.
But across the land, smoke from chimneys flowed
As all these people, these home did hold.
So tonight, to sleep depart,
Holding your dreams in your heart.
As tonight we try to believe,
Magic happens this, and every Christmas Eve.
