Wake up, little darlin'
It's Christmas morning
The sun is up
It's time to open all the gifts that you've been given

You had been dreaming
Angels are singing
But now they're gone
And once again, it's time to go on with our lives

Let's hope that the next year
Will be better than last year
And somehow we'd all get by
Maybe the time will come
When we won't need to pretend
To be happy for just a while

World keeps on turnin'
Fools keep on wishing
And when you wake
You'll find that everything is not what we dreamed them to be

Let's hope that the next year
Will be better than last year
And somehow we'd all get by
Maybe the time will come
When we won't need to pretend
To be happy for just a while

Wake up, little darlin'
It's Christmas mornin'
So rise and shine
Let's make the most of happy holidays

Or maybe I should
Just let you dream for a while longer
Wherever's a better place than here
Here, here, here
