Dream Child (a Christmas Dream) Lyrics - Christmas Attic - Trans Siberian Orchestra

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 years that lay broken 

And there upon that 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 

Photos 

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 his hand 

And there upon that Christmas scene 

The candle wax of melted dreams 

And the years they had taken 

And as that snow did gently fall 

We one by one relit them all 

Till each dream was awakened 

And then 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 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 star's distant light 

And it all came to be 

Upon 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
