Tinsel Town by Alan Swanwick

Tinseltown

Motief

Candy Canes and Christmas trees
The smell of pine needles on the breeze
The streets are buzzing like busy bees
And a jolly old fat man
He's wibbling and wobbling Jingling and jangling
And he whispers in your ear
What's it going to be this year

We paint the city from head to toe
All the colours of fire filies and rainbows
I love this city I love the snow
The neon lights and missletoe and all the buildings in a row
And all the people that I know
And those that can't be here
I know what I will wish for
I know what I will hope for this year

Merry Christmas
Let love be your lightning
Wishes on your pillow
And dreams on your mind

I remember my mothers hands
I was holding on so kindly she led me off
Through the crowded streets and Christmas stands
Our silhouettes in the moonlight
And candy floss clouds
Starlight shine bright
Guide her way home tonight

Merry Christmas
Let love be your lightning
Wishes on your pillow
And dreams on your mind
It's Christmas

Motief

I remember my mothers hands
I was holding on so tightly
Still holding on
