Lights shine in their eyes, at this wondrous time of year
Surprises are not hard for them to know
Tom-toms bang __ and clangers clang
To set young face aglow
And Santa’s toys now wait to make their show
On this Eve of Santa Claus, excitement grows
Thinking bout their wishes, heaven knows
Wondering what the dear old man, will bring along tonight
Maybe a new doll, or some candies that I like?
I’ll leave some cookies out, or Christmas pudding
__ for the night
Then sneak a peak at Santa’s jolly nose
Christmas spirit echoes in their laughter
As children strut processions round the room
A model train for Tim
And doll for Terri Lynn
While the Christmas tree lights play a jolly tune!
