TALKING ON CHRISTMAS EVE
© 2006
Alan P. MacLeod SOCAN
The
world will have to wait
There’s a call I have to make
to my
old friends, we talk on Christmas Eve
all us old friends, talking on Christmas Eve
We
will talk about the year
Share some laughs and our fears.
We remember, easier days.
When toboggan hills were steep
before laugh-lines got deep
we are lucky to be here
sorer each year
we’re
old friends, talking on Christmas Eve
we’re old friends, talking on Christmas Eve
I feel the strength of your smile
'cross these thousand miles.
I feel the Spirit, riding this wire.
No matter how I am
I find my soul again.
In the warmth of old songs
with the Faith of those gone
we’re
old friends, talking on Christmas Eve
we’re old friends, talking on Christmas Eve
Like
every one
I hope war ends
and no one goes hungry
I hope the earth finds a friend.
Hope you stay as happy
as you sound tonight.
Yeah, we should.
All right.
we’re
old friends, talking on Christmas Eve
we’re old friends, talking on Christmas Eve
