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 A CLOCK TOLLING 

FROM A 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
