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 |
