It's Christmastime
|
There's no need to be afraid
|
At Christmastime
|
we let in light
|
and we banish shade
|
And in our world of plenty
|
we can spread a smile of joy
|
Throw your arms
|
around the world
|
at Christmastime
|
But say a prayer
|
Pray for the other ones
|
At Christmastime it's hard
|
but when you're having fun
|
There's a world
|
outside your window
|
And it's a world
|
of dread and fear
|
Where the only water
|
flowing is the bitter
|
sting of tears
|
And the Christmas bells
|
that ring
|
there are the clanging
|
chimes of doom
|
Well tonight thank God
|
it's them instead of you
|
And there won't be snow
|
in Africa this Christmastime
|
The greatest gift
|
they'll get this year is life
|
(Oooh) Where nothing ever grows
|
No rain nor rivers flow
|
Do they know
|
it's Christmastime at all?
|
(Here's to you)
|
raise a glass for everyone
|
(Here's to them)
|
underneath that burning sun
|
Do they know
|
it's Christmastime at all?
