once upon a northern city
where i lay my head
trying to hear saint nick's footsteps
awake in my bed
all the presents i hope i'll get are runnin' through my mind
but i'm not sure santa's real anymore
'cause i heard it from my teacher at school
i don't care what they say to me
'cause i still believe it'll be the best christmas ever
the best christmas ever
many years have passed since then and
more has been revealed
now i sit with all my children
i know santa's real
i can't wait to tuck them in tonight
'cause i need a moment with the love of my life
i don't think she could mean more to me
'cause i still believe it'll be the best christmas ever
the best christmas ever
i remember those dark christmas days
when fairy lights would vanish in the haze
sure
i heard a voice sayin' stick around" to me
