A Thousand Years |
| There is silence on the street tonight |
| And the cars have all gone home |
| Every shop has locked its doors up tight |
| Getting ready for the show |
| And it’s time for me to go |
| There’s a roaring fire and a rocking chair |
| And a stocking full of dreams |
| Every corner’s filled with a joyful air |
| And the scent of evergreen |
| We will toast peace on earth |
| Raise a glass of Christmas cheer |
| And ask this night to last a thousand years |
| A thousand years |
| A thousand years |
| We will ask this night to last |
| A thousand years |
| If the sky belonged to me alone |
| And my dreams could all come true |
| I would give to every child a home |
| Like the one I share with you |
| So let us toast peace on earth |
| And good fortune everywhere |
| And ask this night to last a thousand years |
| I will wrap my heart in a silver bow |
| And place it in your hands |
| For your love’s the gift I cherish most |
| Out of all the gifts I’ve had |
| A thousand years |
| A thousand years |
| We will ask this night to last |
| A thousand years |
| A thousand years |
| A thousand years |
| We will ask this night to last |
| A thousand years |
