Lyrics:

[Spoken] In this room where shadows live And ghosts that failed learn time forgives Welcome friends, please stay awhile



Our story starts with one small child Who spends this night in a palace dark Where dreams are stored, like sleeping hearts



Now if you ask why this child is here With all asleep and Christmas near It seems she long ago left home For reasons that are now unknown



And time it erased her tracks Until she felt she could not go back But this night will take her in And here our story does begin



For also here, inside this night Hidden deep and out of sight Is one who came to be it seems The caretaker of forgotten dreams



"Dear Mom and Dad... I don't know how to ask this I'm so sorry for-- I would like to please come home If you could please send me ..."



And he watched this child arrive Into a world where dreams survive And in her eyes he saw the cost Of every dream that she had lost



And he believes if you change one night It's possible to change a life



And now with life long gone dim He awakes the magic still within And at midnight on this Christmas Eve A Christmas spell he starts to weave
