Trans-Siberian Orchestra (TSO) - Dream Child (A Christmas Dream) lyrics

Your rating:



In the night 

Was the dark 

In the dark 

Was the dream 

In the dream 

Was the Child 

And myself 

There unseen 



In the book was the word 

In the word there was truth 

In the truth there was age 

In the age there was youth 



And I said to the Child 

Do your hands they still bleed 

After all of this time 

Do you think there's still need 

But the Child only smiled 



And said not a word 

And the snow it came down 

As if it hadn't heard 



And all that night the snow came down 

To heal the scars our lives had found 

And the dreams that lay broken 



And there upon a bridge of dreams 

Across the night we walked unseen 

With no words ever spoken 



And then on through that night 

We did walk for a while 

And our steps turned to blocks 

And the blocks turned to miles 



Then we followed a path 

For as far as we could 

Till we found ourselves there 

In an evergreen woods 



There were thousands of candles 

Upon every tree 

It was beautiful 

But there was one mystery 

For with all of those candles 

You must understand 

That the only one lit 

Was now in that Child's hand 



And there upon that Christmas scene 

The candle wax of melted dreams 

And the years they had taken 



And as the snow did gently fall 

He one by one relit them all 

Till each dream was awakened 



And there to that light 

That young Child showed to me 

All the things that he dreamt 

All the things that might be 

How for everything given 

That something was gained 

Strike one match in the dark 

And all the world's not the same 



And then I asked that Child 

Why this night has a star 

And he said, "So we'd know 

That we could see that far" 

And these candles are wed 

To that distant star's light 

And it all came to be 

Upon that long winter's night 

That long winter's night 

That long winter's night 

That long winter's night 



And when I awoke, well the Child he was gone 

But somewhere in my mind 

I believe he lives on 

And somewhere in my life 

Between here and the end 

On a long winter's night 

I will dream him again 



THEN SHE NOTICED ON SOME CHRISTMAS CARDS 

A REDDISH PURPLE STAIN 

WHERE SOMEONE HAD SPILLED SOME CHRISTMAS WINE 

AND THERE IT HAD REMAINED 



UNTIL THE HEAT FROM A RADIATOR 

WHISTLING IN THE AIR 

HAD CAUSED IT TO EVAPORATE 

INTO AN ANGEL'S SHARE
