Trans-Siberian Orchestra - The World That She Sees lyrics

rate me

There in this night

There is a life

Someone who waits for me

Only a child

Dreams and a smile

Waiting to play

And now she's found

Snow on the ground

Magic has been set free

She's waited here

All of this year

Just for this day

And then the night comes alive

With lights to dazzle

And everything's extraordinary

Nothing is left ordinary

Christmas has come

With its long memory

And in my mind

It always will be

The world that she sees

Caught in this night

Pieces of light

Glitter and play for you

And made of glass

Dreams from the past

Wait for this day

And if you try

Look in the sky

One star is shining through

And on this eve

You can't believe

It's far away

And then the night comes alive

With lights to dazzle

And everything's extraordinary

Nothing is left ordinary

Christmas has come

With its long memory

And in my mind

It always will be

The world that she sees

There on this night

Pieces of light

There on this night

Pieces of light

Christmas has come

Christmas has come

The world that she sees

The world that she sees

On this night

On this night

The world that she sees

Then after he had thought awhile

The father recalled another child

Born in a time now far away

And how this child's dreams

Had reached this day

He wondered what that child had thought

And when he slept what dreams he sought

And did the shepherds understand

All the hopes in that child's hands?

And how those hopes would still survive

As dreams within each newborn's eyes

* * *

Then the child heard a clock tolling

From a distant city tower

And she gazed up at the starlight

On this Christmas midnight hour

And she wondered if these stars

Were all but bits of dreams

From somewhere in the distant past

That somehow, could still be seen

And she wondered if her candle

Upon this magic night

Could be seen by someone faraway

As their own starlight
