December Child Lyrics
Cyndi Lauper
Chorus:
close your eyes december child
and dream a while my little son and moon
may the stars be your crown
and may the earth guide you round and round
Snuggle up and let me hold kiss
Your baby breath in the dark and cold
On a silent night long ago
Another mother held her babe and told him
Chorus:
close your eyes december child
and dream a while my little son and moon
may the stars be your crown
and may the earth guide you round and round
They had come such a long long way
Rest your little head on me and Ill tell you of
A little king and his bed of hay
It is remembered every christmas day
Little one, little son
All my life Ive wished you welcome
Chorus:
close your eyes december child
and dream a while my little son and moon
may the stars be your crown
and may the earth guide you round and round
