Soon it will be Christmas
The time is here again
Giving out lots of presents
To all your family and friends
I'll try to make this one
The very best for you
I wish there was something
Something more that I could do

If I was Santa Claus just for the day
I'd make all your dreams come true, in every way
If I had the power, I'd help out those in need
Wipe out all the poverty, hatred and greed
If I had the magic to make all the pain go away
I would do it all on Christmas day

I watch the children
The excitement on their faces
There's still less fortunate ones
In some lost forgotten places
We need to reach out and change their lives
We all have a part to play
And we can become St. Nick
In our own little way
If I was Santa Claus just for the day
I'd make all your dreams come true, in every way
If I had the power, I'd help out those in need
Wipe out all the poverty, hatred and greed
If I had the magic to make all the pain go away
I would do it all on Christmas day

If I was Santa Claus, just for the day
If I was Santa Claus, just for the day
If I was Santa Claus just for the day
If I was Santa Claus just for the day
