The christmas angel Silence, No such things as angel s Stubborn said to himself No such things as angel He not seen or feel an Angel in his short life Not believe anything like Angels or nothing like that Believe in television or thing that Touch by the grand river After all the Christmas angel Is not real as the new is not real To him, Until one Christmas eve, Feel something touch him in his dream Wrap him in warm wings As tears fall upon Christmas eve Looking up to the bright light that ever Seen by him in his short life As the world Headline rejoice with joy Yes there is such things as angels Yes there is such things as Chrismas angels For we who think Christmas about presents And expensive things, It is not, as life is not about that Angels are there to remain us It is about Being love in our times Here, Not in silence My words to you |
