Looking For Christmas

verse one

Last night i dreamed i was a kid again
All the things i used to do i went and did again
Spent the afternoon with my best and closest friend
Wanderin' through the days we thought would never end
It was back when i'd still get things from santa claus
Back when he believed in me and overlooked the flaws
That can grow inside until it hides the
Perfect little boy inside the man

Chorus

I'm not a kid anymore, but i still believe
That those miracles occur
That's not something up his sleeve
And that the reindeer pull the sleigh and
The elves will make the toys
Santa gives away to all the girls and boys

Verse two

Tonight i'll climb back in that bed again
Try to live out all my dreams inside my head again
After christmas eve with my best and closest friend
Who will believe the world's greatest dad
Just tucked him in
And i know that he'llbe looking out for santa claus
And i'm sure beyond a doubt he'll overlook the flaws
That will grow inside until it hides this
Perfect little boy inside a man

Chorus two

I'm not a kid anymore and i still believe
That miracles occur
That's not something up his sleeve
And that the reindeer pull the sleigh and
The elves do make the toys
Santa gives away to all the girls and boys

there's no telling how far a kiss'll go

Wish on the highest star that this'll go

On right here where we are under the mistletoe

On christmas night, it seems so right

That a lovely holiday dish made a mess of me

If love is this, it's my favourite recipe

The kind that fits to remind the rest of me

There's room to grow, under the mistletoe

But i made this "mist" as a christmas wannabe

With a christmas list that insists i've gotta be

Hugged and kissed by this sweet miss in front of me

On christmas night and every night

Just right here, in the doorway where they found us

They'd like to leave but there's no way around us

I believe there's a spell that bound us

I've gotta know, is it only the mistletoe

Gotta know, i'm afraid to go

Don't want out if we're in the throes

Flames die out in the afterglow

And i've gotta know, is it only the mistletoe

Don't think so

Gotta know, i'm afraid to go

Don't want out if we're in the throes

Flames die out in the afterglow

And i've gotta know, is it only the mistletoe

Don't think so

I gotta know

Say it ain't, say it ain't ... just the mistletoe

verse one

I'm looking for christmas, i've gotta find
Christmas, flying back in my mind
Does anyone know of this christmas, a long ago christmas
Sleigh bells ringing, carolers singing
Only bringing the long traveled message of love

Verse two

I'm looking for christmas, in time for this
Christmas, a day far and away
And could a star show me christmas,
The town of old christmas
Where truth is ringing, a virgin's
Bringing the newborn king and the
Lord's own messiah of love

Chorus one

And i close my eyes and i'm kneeling there in the stall,
And could i be the wine man, sharing his wisdom,
Creating a kingdom for all

Verse three

I'm looking for christmas, i know i'll find christmas
Imparted right from the start
And everyone knows of this christmas
The very first christmas
Where christ is guiding, all with tidings
Still his light is residing here in us all

Chorus two

And i close my eyes, and a thousand lifetimes recall
Aren't we all wise magi, sharing his wisdom,
Creating a kingdom
As born on this christmas and each christmas day
We are sharing his wisdom creating a kingdom
As born on this christmas and each
Christmas day that shall fall

verse one

Sages have come from far following one bright star
Telling us where thou art from heaven
The king of kings, lord is the word he brings
Praise of the nazarene the angels will sing

Chorus

Jesus born unto mary in bethlehem
The angels herald the pietas in the magi,
Ardent wouldn't tarry to find him,
Enshrine him, glorify him

Verse two

Frankincense, gold and myrrh honor the savior's birth
The highest praise on earth
The angels will sing of him, the trinity begins
Voices will ring, "amen the birth of the king"

Chorus two

Jesus, joseph and mary of israel, isiah's
Miracle augured befell
The coming of christ as the star from the east will tell
The first noel our load emmanuel

Verse three

Sages have come from far following one bright star
Telling us who thou art from heaven
The king of kings, lord is the word he brings
Praise of the nazarene, the angels will sing
Of the birth of the king
The angels will sing of the birth of the king
The angels will sing of the birth of the king

now i'm only five years old
I've got to do just what i'm told
'cause santa claus is gonna be dropping in on me
Now is there something i might have missed
I had quite a few things on my list
I hope he can fit it all under that christmas tree.
Now i know what he like for a late night snack
For years now it's been bringing him back
Milk and cookies
He'll come and go without a sound again
But how in the world does he get in
Ain't got a chimney
Close my eyes and concentrate
Try to sleep it's getting late
All night long i lie awake
Till santa's gone i just can't wait
Now is there something i might have missed
I had quite a few things on my list
I hope he can get it all under that christmas tree.
Sneak a peek down the hall
I've got to check now i don't recall
The milk and cookies
I think i'm sure i got it all
Stockings hung a-long the wall
Ain't got a chimney
Close my eyes and concentrate
I gotta sleep now it's getting late
All night long i lie awake
Till santa's gone i just can't wait
Just can't wait, just can't wait
Could there be something i might have missed
I had quite a few things on my list
I hope he can fit it all under that christmas tree.
I hope he can fit it all under my christmas tree.

Spoken:

Let's see, i know he can fit...he can fit the airplane under there. he can
Get the bicycle in there
And the...and the gum ball machine and don't know what he's gonna do with
That horse.
