PAROLES, LYRICS They said There ll be snow at Christmas They said There ll be peace on Earth But instead it just kept on raining A veil of tears for the Virgin s birth I remember one Christmas morning A winter s light and a distant choir And the peal of a bell and that Christmastree smell And their eyes full of tinsel and fire They sold me a dream of Christmas They sold me a Silent Night They told me a fairy story Till I believed in the Israelite And I believed in Father Christmas And I looked at the sky with excited eyes Till I woke with a yawn, in the first light of dawn And I saw him through his disguise I wish you a hopeful Christmas I wish you a brave New Year All anguish, pain and sadness Lea br, br,
