On our way from Stockholm
Started to snow
And you said it was like Christmas
But you were wrong
It wasn't like Christmas at all

By the time we got to Oslo
Snow was gone
And we got lost
The beds were small
But we felt so young
It was just like Christmas
It was just like Christmas
It was just like Christmas
It was just like Christmas
It was just like Christmas
It was just like Christmas

It was just like Christmas
It was just like Christmas
It was just like Christmas
It was just like Christmas
It was just like Christmas
It was just like Christmas
It was just like Christmas

. . .


We've come so far
We've followed the star
Harod heard
Said "bring me word"
Take the long way around the sea

Here for us
A humble birth
The son of God
Descends to earth
Take the long way around the sea

On Christmas day
On bended knee
Please accept
The gifts we bring
Take the long way around the sea
Take the long way around the sea

We turn to go
An angel shone
Said, "don't go back
To harod's throne"
Take the long way around the sea
Take the long way around the sea

Take the long way around the sea
Take the long way around the sea

. . .


Come, they told me
Pa romp pa pom pom
A newborn king you'll see
Pa romp pa pom pom
Our finest gifts we bring
Pa romp pa pom pom
To lay before the king
Pa romp pa pom pom
Romp pa pom pom, romp pa pom pom
So to honor Him, pa romp pa pom pom
When we come

Baby Jesus
Pa romp pa pom pom
I am a poor boy too
Pa romp pa pom pom
I have no gift to bring
Pa romp pa pom pom
That fit to give our king
Pa romp pa pom pom
Romp pa pom pom, romp pa pom pom
Shall I play for You, pa romp pa pom pom
On my drum

Mary nodded
Pa romp pa pom pom
The ox and lamb kept time
Pa romp pa pom pom
I played my drum for Him
Pa romp pa pom pom
I played my best for Him
Pa romp pa pom pom
Romp pa pom pom, romp pa pom pom
Then He smiled at me, pa romp pa pom pom
Me and my drum

. . .


If you were born today
We'd kill you by age eight
Never get the chance to say

Joy to the world and
Peace on the earth
Forgive them for they know not what they do

Blessed are the meek and
Blessed are the humble
Blessed are the ninety and nine

Deny the flesh
Deny all that's evil
Tonight you'll deny me thrice

If you were born today
We'd kill you by age eight
Ever get the chance to say...

. . .


I'll have a blue blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't mean a thing if you're not here with me

I'll have a blue Christmas that's certain
And when that blue heartaches starts hurting
You'll be doing alright with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas

You'll be doing alright with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas

. . .


Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ, the Saviour is born
Christ, the Saviour is born

Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth

. . .


Careful, one by one
It is undone
Seems before it's over
It's begun

Another broken reindeer
Another candle
Another velvet ribbon
Another nosebleed

Winding up the lights
We set the star so high
So high
So high

. . .


After we've spent all the money
On nieces and nephews
And a couple of friends

There'll be just enough left
For one special gift
For one special gift

For one special guest
