[00:00.00]Christmas - Blues Traveler
[00:00.78]Comes the time for christmas
[00:03.46]And i really have to ask
[00:06.98]If this is feeling merry
[00:09.96]How much longer must it last
[00:12.93]I wish a one horse open sleigh
[00:16.09]Would come carry me away
[00:18.66]But i've been waiting here all day
[00:22.47]And one just hasn't come my way
[00:25.73]Now excuse me if i'm not being reverent
[00:28.91]But i was hoping for a miracle to hold me wash me
[00:32.62]Save me from my righteous doubt as i watch helpless
[00:37.32]And everybody sings
[00:38.53]If its chanukah or kwanza
[00:42.12]Solstice harvest or december twenty-fifth
[00:45.71]Peace on earth to everyone
[00:48.22]And abundance to everyone you're with
[00:51.84]La
[01:14.56]Comes the time for christmas
[01:16.98]And as you raise your yuletide flask
[01:20.28]There's like this feeling that you carry
[01:23.36]As if from every christmas past
[01:26.66]It's as if each year it grows
[01:29.90]It's like you feel it in your toes
[01:32.41]And on and on your carol goes
[01:36.30]Harvesting love among your woes
[01:39.49]I want to buy into the benevolent
[01:42.64]And i was hoping for a miracle to hold me wash me
[01:46.51]Make me know what its about
[01:49.17]As the longing in me makes me want to sing
[01:52.67]Noel or navidad
[01:56.16]Season celebration or just the end of the year
[01:59.68]Christmas can mean anything
[02:02.12]And i mean to keep its hope forever near
[02:05.69]La
[02:28.01]As if a cold and frozen soul is warm to love
[02:33.94]By loves own hand
[02:36.92]So goes the prayer if for a day peace on earth
[02:41.98]And good will to man
[02:46.36]At twenty below the winter storm it billows
[02:49.48]But the fire is so warm inside
[02:52.65]And the children while nestled in their pillows
[02:55.84]Dream of st nicholass ride
[02:58.79]And how the next day they'll get up and they will play
[03:01.98]In the still falling christmas snow
[03:05.07]And together we'll celebrate forever
[03:08.28]In defiance of the winds that blow
[03:11.03]My god in heaven now i feel like i'm seven
[03:14.48]And spirit calls to me as well
[03:17.55]As if christmas had made the winter warmer
[03:20.98]Made a paradise from what was hell
[03:23.98]As if a cold and frozen soul is warm to love
[03:29.61]By loves own hand
[03:32.52]So goes the prayer if for a day peace on earth
[03:37.52]And good will to man
[03:52.30]I wish a one horse open sleigh would come carry me away
[03:58.16]And i'll keep waiting through next may
[04:01.35]And when just comes my way
[04:04.88]It's as if each year it grows
[04:07.89]It's like you feel it in your toes
[04:10.45]And on and on your carol goes
[04:14.24]Harvesting love among your woes
[04:17.37]Oh
[05:19.42]I wish a one horse open sleigh would come carry me away
[05:25.66]And i'll keep waiting through next may
[05:29.60]Until christmas comes my way
