Just One Night

Pretty packages are flashing down the sidewalk
Bells are ringing as the people go their way
Christmas time around the world for every boy and girl
There will come a time, they'll wonder how it started

In just one night the world was changed forever
Just one life given willingly
And I remember that December how it started
In just one night

Little children with a list of all their wishes
Busy shoppers with a list of what they need
Every year we start anew with so many things to do
We forget sometimes just why it is we do them

In just one night the world was changed forever
Just one life given willingly
And I remember that December how it started
In just one night, in just one night
