On A Christmas Day - Papermoon

Walking along the sidewalk

Watching the children play

I have seen

Smiling faces waiting for christmas day

Hiding behind a corner

A boy turned around to say:

«I have seen a thousand people crying on a christmas day»

While I tried to answer

The boy disappeared in the night

On my own;

I was left there wondering

If he was right

And I began to think about it

Was it ever meant to be that way

«Love is the answer» said a voice in the crowd and I saw that boy run away

«Why don’t you stay?

Where did you hide?

Will I see you again?

Why don’t you stay?»

And as I stood there alone

Staring into the night

I have seen a thousand people searching for the light

If you are lost and lonely

If you’re alone today

Find that boy

And let him show you (the way)

And he will care about you when the night is long

He will make you smile again and sing along

Let’s join our hands and let us pray

For love on christmas day
