[00:00.00]Closing (From “The Nightmare Before Christmas”/Soundtrack Version) - Danny Elfman
[00:00.70]And finally
[00:01.42]Everything worked out just fine
[00:03.67]
[00:04.32]Christmas was saved
[00:05.65]
[00:06.19]Though there wasn't much time
[00:07.65]
[00:08.30]But after that night
[00:09.36]
[00:09.93]Things were never the same
[00:11.44]
[00:11.99]Each holiday now knew the other one's name
[00:14.51]
[00:15.62]And though
[00:16.28]That one Christmas things got out of hand
[00:19.01]
[00:20.19]I'm still rather fond of that skeleton man
[00:23.60]
[00:24.23]So many years later
[00:26.60]I thought I'd drop in
[00:28.03]
[00:28.96]And there was old Jack
[00:30.83]Still looking quite thin'
[00:32.65]With four or five skeleton children at hand
[00:35.77]Playing strange little tunes
[00:37.62]In their xylophone band
[00:38.65]
[00:39.26]And I asked old Jack
[00:41.00]
[00:41.87]"Do you remember the night
[00:43.77]When the sky was so dark
[00:46.47]And the moon shone so bright
[00:48.83]When a million small children pretending to sleep
[00:52.35]Nearly didn't have Christmas at all
[00:54.54]So to speak"
[00:55.82]"And would if you could
[00:57.61]Turn that mighty clock back
[01:00.07]To that long fateful night
[01:02.10]Now think carefully Jack
[01:03.81]
[01:04.36]Would you do the
[01:05.76]Whole thing all over again
[01:07.38]
[01:07.89]Knowing what you know now
[01:09.89]Knowing what you knew then"
[01:11.68]
[01:13.80]And he smiled
[01:15.22]Like the old pumpkin' king that I knew
[01:17.93]
[01:18.58]Then turned and asked softly of me
[01:22.03]
[01:23.46]"Wouldn't you"
