Luyện nghe bài hát The Christmas Attic

Somewhere in the

Between night and God

An sat upon a star

While very hard

To return once to the earth
He had been
And a gift for all of man
He was to leave

But this that he was to leave
Could not be taken from the court
And how could he leave behind
If could be brought

Now this was a puzzle
And he knew not how to
he suddenly felt a prayer from a child
Reach into his heart

And though his time was
To this one of the year
He not ignore this child's request
So he decided he start here

For though night was Christmas Eve
And dreams were all
Somewhere below on earth
He had felt this begin to doubt

A child who should have been
Instead was climbing stairs
her solitary candle
And a Christmas prayer

Now, when they are called
rarely just appear
But more than not
They gently whisper in ear

And when whisper to a child
On nights when snow glistens
The chances are much still
That, that child, listen

So in this room shadows live
And ghosts that failed learn forgives
Welcome friends, please awhile
Our story starts one small child
Who spends this night in an dark
Where dreams are stored sleeping hearts

Now, if you wonder why child is here
all asleep and Christmas near
She's come up here to look for
In place closest to the roof

For she had heard from who feel
That nothing on this night is
no adults truly believe
In all these things of Eve

This night that seems to cast a
Is the world, just tinseled well
And as she lay in bed that
She if they might be right

And she then who she might ask
About this that had been cast
For adults, she had told, you see
Are of this conspiracy

But in her mind becoming
The shadow of a child's

There was one whose presence
Would reconfirm she had known

But this man, he was so rarely
For he arrived when children dreamed
But if she had believed was right
He should appear this very
So on this night so much at stake
She's determined that she stay awake

But then a problem to mind
It seems that had not been kind
For their had been closed that year
Some bricks might fall, her feared

So she had devised plan
To hear on the roof he lands
So with the ghosts left by fate
Upon this she sits and waits

Now as I'm sure you all know
When one is waiting, time moves
And as she what to do
(her seeming far too few)

The Angel caused that child to
Behind a yellowed of books
these memories disguised as junk
She noticed there a well trunk

It was filled with and one old wreath
And letters underneath
Some ornaments, a hand phone
And with a gramophone

A mix of long words
With no longer heard
All threads of long lives
But here they had survived

letters that had caught her eye
Now in her hands seemed alive
And as letter she unsealed
A small piece of the was revealed

For Christmas a life long spell
And most of all remembers
And as that explored the past
Once again that spell was

And as the child to read
Upon this night of Eve
The plan, as you can tell
It was already well
So as the ghosts arise
In our first song we'll
