There was a cold winter night 
 Where the dark went on forever 
 And the world seemed like a 
 Dream gone astray 

 And somehow there on this night 
 As the world huddled together 
 There a child slept at the end of 
 The day 

 And he dreamed of another world 
 In another time 
 And another place 

 Where no man 
 Has to wear a sign 
 Saying where he's from 
 Saying what's his race 

 And he wants us to believe 
 This world that he sees 

 What is the dream of this night 
 Why does it echo forever 
 Here in the cold at the end of 
 This year 

 And with all our different lives 
 Why do we dream it together 
 When at the first sign of snow it 
 Appears 

 When he dreamed of another world 
 In another time 
 And another place 

 Where no man 
 Has to wear a sign 
 Saying where he's from 
 Saying what's ris race 

 And he wants us to believe 
 This world that he sees 

 When he dreamed of another world 
 In another time 
 And another place 

 Where no man 
 Has to wear a sign 
 Saying where he's from 
 Saying what's ris race 

 And he wants us to believe 
 This world that he sees 

 When he dreamed of another world 
 In another time 
 And another place 

 Where no man 
 Has to wear a sign 
 Saying where he's from 
 Saying what's ris race 

 And he wants us to believe 
 This world that he sees 

 THEN THE CHILD HEAR CLOCK TOLLING 
 FROM DISTANT CITY TOWER 
 AND SHE GAZED UP AT THE STARLIGHT 
 ON THIS CHRISTMAS MIDNIGHT HOUR 

 AND SHE WONDERED IF THESE STARS 
 WERE ALL BUT BITS OF DREAMS 
 FROM SOMEWHERE IN THE DISTAND PAST 
 THAT SOMEHOW, COULD STILL BE SEEN 

 AND SHE WONDERED IF HER CANDLE 
 UPON THIS MAGIC NIGHT 
 COULD BE SEEN BY SOMEONE FARAWAY 
 AS THEIR OWN STARLIGHT
