lyrics

Little child, little child, rest your weary head.
Santa's gonna fill that stocking on your bed.
Lots of toys for you to play with,
Think about that jingling sleigh with
Reindeer dancing on your rooftop.

Teddy bears take your cares far away from here,
Mummy sings gentle things softly in your ear,
Close your eyes, let love enfold you,
That's what all the angels told you,
Dream a little dream of Christmas.

And while you sleep,
Let them keep watch over your bed
Daisy chains, laughs and games
Float around in your head.
Winter wind is blowing cold outside
But in my heart you make it Christmas.

Little child, little child,
Everyone loves you.
That's because in your heart only lives what's true
Hear this lullaby just for you,
Just to show how we adore you,
You make everything as it should be.

Grown-ups speak tenderly, while you drift away
Rocking horse will take you to that place you play
Heaven's arms spread wide tonight
And share with me some of their light
So I will dream a dream of Christmas

And while you sleep, angels keep
Watch over your bed,
Daisy chains, laughs and games,
Float around in your head,
Winter wind is blowing cold outside
But in my heart you make it Christmas.
