And the man who would be Santa slips into the room And hour of daylight's yet to come but he hopes they don't wake too All the presents wrapped in paper and tied with a bow The children sleep upstairs and Santa works And he can hear the children dreaming
[Chorus] And he says All I want is you to have A life you love and live Take from me all I have to give Because you are in my heart
And the man who would Santa tells his son to write And to call him if he needs him in the middle of the night \"Don't you worry don't you cry you'll do just Your mother and I love you We think about you all the time\" And he can see the train leaving
[Chorus]
Now the old man sits and tells of days when time stood still The hours always seem to fade but memory never will All the love that you gave me All the dreams in the night And I just want to thank you while the day's still light But I can see sun is setting
