On The Day Before Christmas

There was a time when we all did  believe
in a god, in  a stairway to heaven
There was a time, we  were younger and free
When to laugh and to  love meant to live 

Now we are blind for the beauty around  us
We take,  but forgot how to give
On the day before  christmas 

Look around and all  I see is trouble, all I see is pain
Even on a  holy day like christmas
The time is near the people  realize the lies, rise, organize to spread sweet love around the world, here we stand across the land, we join our hands on the day before christmas 

There was a sign  out in the distance
A star that is  what we´ve been told
There  was a sign for love and assistance
But the world that we live  in turned cold 

Still we are fighting  all over the planet
Only for silver  and gold
On the day before christmas  

Look around and all  I see is trouble... 

Will we understand?  We have to believe
We´ll be free again if  we learn how to love and forgive 

There´s a man on a sleigh and he is on his  way,
and the children  are singing
There´s a man on the moon and he´ll come  to you soon,
and the bells  will be ringing
