lyrics

it's christmas eve and there's footsteps upstairs
i told you so
the lights are out but there's whistling in the hall
i told you so

our cookies are gone
our stockings filled to the brim
i moved away the grate
so that he could get in
i told you so

i’ve been told that it's time to grow up
i told them no
if not to believe in magic and miracles, then what
is christmas even for

he replied to my note
and he pinned it to the door
got exactly what i wanted
how could mom and dad afford:

a bike and a toy jet plane
a box of candy canes
and the finest pair of red woollen gloves?

and why should i doubt
something just cause i can't see?
i don't have to do away with
all our faith in mystery
one day you'll see
i told you so
