The Night Before Christmas Lyrics - Singles - Carly Simon

The Night Before Christmas (Children carry through the streets) 

Children carry through the streets 

A brightly painted star 

Angels gather 'round the hearth 

Strumming on guitars 

Men of great renown and faith 

Say prayers on boulevards 

It's the night before Christmas 

But you don't have to be an angel 

To sing harmony 

And you don't have to be a child 

To love the mystery 

And you don't have to be a wise man 

On bended knee 

The heart of this Christmas is in you and me

The night before Christmas 

The night before Christmas 

If you're heart's been longing 

And you've been afraid to try 

Sorrow's kept you company 

And the dance has passed you by 

I'll lift you up and blaze with you 

Across the moonlit sky 

On the night before Christmas 

'Cause you don't have to be an angel 

To sing in harmony 

And you don't have to be a child to love the mystery 

And you don't have to be a wise man 

On bended knee
