lyrics

Wrap up your doubts and come away,
Send all your fears on holiday.
In the morning, when the sun shines
on the bright snow on the ground, when your foot goes through for the first time,
Everybody loves that sound.

The dreams in every Christmas song.
Real life bears no comparison.
In the morning, when you wake up
And the grass is just as green,
There's a chorus i can sing you.
Hope you all know what I mean.
CHORUS
I've got spray on snow, but it's no big deal.
My tree is plastic, but my Feeling's Real.
And Santa's beard's got a funny feel,
But it's all fantastic, 'cos the Feeling's Real.

Forces of darkness better pray,
The Salvation Army's on the way.
In the evening, when the frost forms,
And your breath comes out like smoke,
We've got the dog dressed up like a reindeer.
Give his shiny nose a stroke.
REPEAT CHORUS

La la la la la la la etc .....
