CHRISTMAS LULLABY
Writer: Melanie Safka
Publishers: Two Story Publishing (ASCAP)
From the album ANTLERS (1997)
An adaptation of the song Lovers Lullaby

And when I remember how good your love feels
The real world goes slipping away
And though it's just dreaming I make your love true
And I trade in this real world for Christmas with you

I go to a wonderland in the moonlight glow
When most of me's feeling alone
And we'll make snow angels in the new fallen snow
And make tracks to our heaven to the place we call home

And though it's just Christmas is there anything else
Sometimes I awaken to question myself

Oh what fools, what children, to follow the heart
For a dream that might last just one night
But something that doesn't speak English says do
And I trade in this real world for Christmas with you

And something with wings and speaks only in blue
Tells me trade in this real world for Christmas you
