Dancin' Santa

I awoke with a start on Christmas Eve
Floorboards rumblin’ beneath my feet
A sound from downstairs, like Christmas songs
And someone's down there singing along
Gingerly I climbed out of my bed
and tip-toed down step by step
At the foot of the staircase, through the open door
I saw a mysterious shadow dancing on the wall
Jumping up and down, arms waving around
With tree lights flashin’ and the music so loud
Windows were rattlin' to the Christmas tunes
As I took a sneak-peak into the room
By the record player was a figure I knew
A fat old fella in a bright red suit
It was Santa dancing with a smile so wide
He looked to me with a tear in his eye
saying “my oh my, I just can’t believe
that they wrote all these great songs for me!”
As he put on another festive 45
Said “this one’s an old favourite of mine”
Then he held out his hand and asked with glee
"May I have this dance on Christmas eve?"
I awoke with a start on Christmas day
Out on the couch, too much dreaming again
I looked at my records scattered around the room
And heard the gentle clicking of the run-out groove
When something caught my eye under the Christmas tree
Red and white wrapping on a new LP
And on it a note, signed with a great big kiss
said “please can we dance again next Christmas?”

A Dream for Christmas

You've got that lost look, I know it so well
You look like I feel, so I can tell
You're waiting for something, your head's in the clouds
And dreams fall like snowflakes that melt on the ground
As snow is falling
Ain't it lovely to see
So dream that this Christmas
The loneliness will end
And everyone out in the cold Is welcomed home again
Let's make amends
'Cause I believe, truly believe
In Christmas
It's not now or never, it's every year
But no one can tell if the next one will be that last one we cheer
So promise me something before you go
That you'll tell your loved ones how you need them so
You say 'see you later'
Well see that you do
And dream that this Christmas
The loneliness will end
And everyone out in the cold Is welcomed home again
Let's make amends
'Cause I believe, truly believe
So here is a dream for Christmas
