Sarah Brightman - I Believe In Father Christmas

They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on Earth
Instead it just kept on raining
With tears for the Virgin's birth
I remember one Christmas morning
A winter's light and a distant choir
And the peal of a bell and that Christmas tree smell
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 at 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 Hell
The Christmas you get, you deserve
