Red Old Man
Here comes the
cold
But there's no snow falling
December 25
Just another
ordinary day
No surprise on that day, just any day, any day
One smiling
couple walking, holding hands giggling
While no red man came,
gifts made their way
They were showered with love
While they
lay on the bay
Showered with love, love, love
Love, love,
love
Love, love, was all around
Not very much do
I know about it
I kept all my secrets inside of my own
I'm
always out on my own
I've never met anyone who without
fee
Would let me sit on his lap for free
But what I wish for is
love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love all around me
When was the
last time I've nailed my socks on a wall
And said, Oh, I hope I
get a lot of gifts on these socks
I came waiting for all night,
hiding on a couch
Instead I saw my mom bringing all these bags
The
presents of toys crammed together
The presents of toys crammed
together
So I'm told,
that's how that story goes
The Red Old Man I know
Is just me
dreaming
Lovers and partners
Children and dreamers
Singers
and poets
All soul searchers
Like you and me
Like you and me
Rumors existed
that he is real
For his deviations taken into custody
By the
authorities, less informed than me.
Lovers and dreamers, all soul
searchers
Searching for love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love,
love, was all around
Preparations
were made
For the celebration day
Mom said, "Let's eat
now and open gifts later."
Let's drink this now and sing
merrily
We sing and dance to the tune of it
We sing and dance
to the tune of it
We sing and dance to the tune of it
Red old man up
above,
Why in all this sadness do you fill me with love, love,
love?
Love, love, love
Love, love, love is all around me
Why
in all this sadness do you fill me with love, love, love?
Love,
love, love
Love, love, love is all around me
