lyrics

Father Christmas
I'm missing the time that I had
For Christmas I want it all back
And I bet the snowflakes
Can carry it my way
Then winter, it won't be so sad

On a highway
I drive by gingerbread homes
Their sugarplum chimneys are froze
But the warmth inside rises
And melts all the icing
But I keep on driving alone

Fa la la, Fa la la, Fa la la, La la la
Fa la la, Fa la la, Fa la la, La la la
Fa la la, Fa la la, Fa la la, La la la la

I need Jesus
To tell me that love isn't bought
In a store. It's found out in the lot
By a couple of brothers
Who needed each other
When their world had been torn apart

Fa la la, Fa la la, Fa la la, La la la
Fa la la, Fa la la, Fa la la, La la la
Fa la la, Fa la la, Fa la la, La la la la

Merry Christmas to us all
When the snowmen start to fall
We won't forget, all the time that we spent
With the ones that we cherish and love

Fa la la, Fa la la, Fa la la, La la la
Fa la la, Fa la la, Fa la la, La la la
Fa la la, Fa la la, Fa la la, La la la la
