The Joy Of Christmas

(album: A Christmas Carol - 2020)

[Bob Cratchit:]
Another night of working late for this cold, heartless man
They say his heart is filled with loneliness and filled with hate
All this time I wondered how he could have been if
Someone knew just what he need, and took away his act of greed

Of all these years I've spent of working for this stubborn man
I realized that wealth and fortune can't bring you all
I can imagine how his life now could have been if
Someone took his hand and said "I'll be your friend"

If he only
Knew the feeling
Of coming home to those
That you are holding close
This day is so much more
Than being all alone
I wish the joy of Christmas
I wish the joy would come to you

Here I am with my loving family
They make me feel like I'm the richest man so constantly
I can't imagine how my life now would have been
If no one had ever taken my hand and said "forever I'm your friend"

If he only
Knew the feeling
Of coming home to those
That you are holding close
This day is so much more
Than being all alone
I wish the joy of Christmas
Would find its way to you

See now that man, I know he can change to a different person
Where you'll find love, that's where you'll find Christmas inside your heart
It's time to now make amends, to tear down the fence and go out into the world
And see all the joy that Christmas can bring

I wish he'd only
Had known the feeling
Of having someone close
Not being all alone

If he only
Knew the feeling
Of coming home to those
That you are holding close
This day is so much more
Than being all alone
I wish the joy of Christmas
I wish the joy would come to you

If he only
Knew the feeling
Of coming home to those
That you are holding close
This day is so much more
Than being all alone
I wish the joy of Christmas
I wish the joy would come to you

This day is so much more
Than being all alone
I wish the joy of Christmas
Would find its way back to you
