Somewhere in the
Between night and God
An angel sat a star
thinking very hard
To return more to the earth He had been And a gift for all of man He was to behind
But this gift he was to leave not be taken from the heavenly court And how he leave something behind If could be brought
Now this was quite a And he knew not how to When he suddenly felt a prayer from a Reach deep his heart
And his time was limited To one night of the year He could not ignore child's request So he decided he would here
For though this was Christmas Eve And dreams were all Somewhere down on earth He had felt this child to doubt
A child who should have asleep Instead was climbing stairs her solitary candle And a single Christmas
Now, angels they are called They just appear But more than not They gently whisper in ear
And when they to a child On nights when snow glistens The chances are much still That, that child, listen
So in this room where shadows And that failed learn time forgives Welcome friends, stay awhile Our starts with one small child Who spends this night in an dark dreams are stored like sleeping hearts
Now, if you wonder why child is here With all asleep and Christmas She's come up here to for truth In this place to the roof
For she had heard from friends who That nothing on this night is That no truly believe In all things of Christmas Eve
This night that to cast a spell Is the same world, just well And as she lay in bed that She wondered if might be right
And she wondered then who she ask this question that had been cast For adults, she had told, you see Are of this conspiracy
But in her mind clear The shadow of a idea
There was one whose alone Would what she had known
But this man, he was so rarely For he only arrived when children But if she had believed was right He appear this very night So on this night with so much at She's that she would stay awake
But then a problem came to It seems fate had not been kind For their chimney had been closed that Some bricks might fall, her feared
So she had devised another To hear when on the roof he So with the ghosts here by fate Upon night she sits and waits
Now as I'm sure you all must one is waiting, time moves slow And as she wondered to do (her seeming far too few)
The Angel caused that child to Behind a pile of books Among these disguised as junk She noticed a well worn trunk
It was filled toys and one old wreath And several underneath Some ornaments, a rung phone And with a gramophone
A mix of forgotten words melodies no longer heard All of long forgotten lives But here somehow they had
letters that had caught her eye Now in her hands they seemed And as each letter she A small of the past was revealed
For Christmas a life long spell And most of all remembers And as that child explored the Once again that was cast
And as the began to read Upon night of Christmas Eve The Angel's plan, as you can It was already working So as the ghosts gently In our first song summarize
