Christmas is Quiet

(album: Cliff At Christmas - 2003)

A little cabin in the mountains
Far away from city lights
Here is where I come each Christmas
To spend the night of nights

Far away from crowds and noisy places
Is where I long to go
All I hear is peace inside me
And the falling of the snow

Christmas is quiet
It is simple, it is right
It's a time to remember
Why it's called a holy night

And children are dreaming
Of Santa on his sleigh
How I wish this season
Would never go away

Sit in silence by the fire
True, true love is never loud
All our hearts express is giving
That's what Christmas is all about

I hope the world comes to its senses
Peace on earth for me and you
I hope it for the children
That my wishes all come true

Christmas is quiet
It is simple, it is right
It's a time to remember
Why it's called a holy night

And nothing compares
To the joy of Christmas Day
How I wish this season
Would never go away
Oh how I wish this season
Now was here to stay
