EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER - I Believe In Father Christmas lyrics

rate me

They said there'll be snow at christmas<br>They said there'll be peace on earth<br>But instead it just kept on raining<br>A veil of tears for the virgin's birth<br>I remember one christmas morning<br>A winters light and a distant choir<br>And the peal of a bell and that christmas tree smell<br>And their eyes full of tinsel and fire<br><br>They sold me a dream of christmas<br>They sold me a silent night<br>And they told me a fairy story<br>'till I believed in the israelite<br>And I believed in father christmas<br>And I looked at the sky with excited eyes<br>'till I woke with a yawn in the first light of dawn<br>And I saw him and through his disguise<br><br>I wish you a hopeful christmas<br>I wish you a brave new year<br>All anguish pain and sadness<br>Leave your heart and let your road be clear<br>They said there'll be snow at christmas<br>They said there'll be peace on earth<br>Hallelujah noel be it heaven or hell<br>The christmas you get you deserve
