Dreaming on a Christmas Day
Watching all the kids at play
Letting idle thoughts stray to the past
Little girl with hazel eyes
Living high up in the skies
How I wish that Christmas Day would last.
Chorus:
But she’s gone now
And all the wishing in the world can’t hold back time
She’s gone now
She’s gone.
Amaryllis in full bloom
Concrete city in the gloom
Memories are old yet they still sting
Teddy bear that had one eye
Joined us as we all did fly
On the yellow duck that had no wings
Chorus:
Water drying in the sun
Going back where it come from
How I wish I could do the same
Empty trees against the sky
Lonely birds against the sky
They’re waiting for the spring to sing again
