I need a moment in time.
A Christmas Miracle
Searching my soul,
Finding the words
this is no traditional Christmas request
I am not traditional guy
My time is short
My pain is high
Doctor said I should make it
But this is not a chance I will take
If this be my final words
Let them be true
Please don’t check your list
I do not know where I stand
Naught or Nice upon your list
I will never again know such bliss
I recall crying upon my shoulder
Her tears soaking in
When I spoke of my return to fight
For God and Country
On Christmas night
I wished to remain strong
To be the rock in her life
Now I will I could hold her
Just on more Christmas night
Please down the chimney I need you, Sir
Red coat and a smile
Should I not make it
Use all the Magic
At your command
To freeze time
With us hand in hand
And if I should die
Before I wake
Please tell her it was
God and country
But most importantly
For my lover’s sake.
