A Christmas Dream
Fast asleep on a winter’s eve
Fly to a land of make believe
Cross the sea to a magic town
Christmas trees all year round
Whirl through the forest of candy cane
Wave to the children on a steam train
Follow the road to a gingerbread cottage
For a tasty bowl of cinnamon porridge
Hidden amongst the snowy rooftops
Hustle and bustle of Santa’s workshop
Red wooden sleigh with presents piled high
Reindeer soar through the frosty night sky
Fly to a land of make believe
Cross the sea to a magic town
Christmas trees all year round
Whirl through the forest of candy cane
Wave to the children on a steam train
Follow the road to a gingerbread cottage
For a tasty bowl of cinnamon porridge
Hidden amongst the snowy rooftops
Hustle and bustle of Santa’s workshop
Red wooden sleigh with presents piled high
Reindeer soar through the frosty night sky
