- [00:15.40]In an old city bar[00:15.40]
[00:18.05]Thats never too far
[00:21.93]From the places that gather
[00:25.09]The dreams that have been
[00:28.53]In the safety of night
[00:31.63]With its old neon light
[00:35.75]It beckons to strangers
[00:38.57]And they always come in
[00:42.31]And the snow it was falling
[00:44.74]Neon was calling
[00:48.28]The music was low
[00:51.86]And the night Christmas
[00:55.85]EveAnd here was the danger
[00:59.30]That even with strangers
[01:02.04]Inside of this night
[01:09.18]Its easier to believe
[01:21.78]Then the door opened wide
[01:25.05]And a child came inside
[01:28.22]That no one in the bar
[01:31.22] Had seen there before
[01:34.79]And he asked did we know
[01:35.62]That outside in the snow
[01:41.39]That someone was lost
[01:44.93 ]Standing outside our door
[01:47.94]Then the bartender gazed
[01:51.06]Through the smoke and the haze
[01:54.11]Through the window and ice
[01: 57.25]To that corner streetlight
[02:00.15]Where standing alone
[02:03.83]By a broken pay phone
[02:07.55]Was a girl, the child said
[02 :10.65]Could no longer get home
[02:13.60]And the snow it was falling
[02:17.03]Neon was calling
[02:28.43]Bartender turned and said, 'Not that I careBut how would you know this?'
[02:40.44]The child said, 'Ive noticedIf one could be home, theyd be already there'
[02:56.01]Then the bartender came out, from behind the bar
[03:01.82]And in all of his life, was never that far
[03:08.18]And he didsomething else that he thought no one saw
[03:14.51]When he took all the cash from the register drawer
[03:20.30]Then he followed the child to the girl across the street
[03 :26.40]And we watched from the bar as they started to speak
[03:33.55]Then he called for a cab then he said, 'J.F.K.'
[03:39.16]Put the girl in the cab and the cab drove away
[03:46.10]And we saw in his hand, that the cash was all gone
[03:53.37]From the light that she had wished upon
[03:58.31]If you want to arrange it
[04:01.55]This world you can change it
[04:02.23]If we could somehow make this Christmas thing last
[04:10.04]By helpin a neighbour
[04:13.62]Even a stranger
[04:17.53]To know who needs help
[04:22.86]You need only just ask
[04:36.17]Then he looked for the child
[04:39.94]But the child wasnt there
[04:43.47]Just the wind and the snow
[04:46.87]Waltzing dreams through the air
[04:50.33]So he walked back inside
[04:52.69]Somehow different,I think
[04:56.68]For the rest of the night
[04:59.72]No one paid for a drink
[05:03.17 ]And the cynics will say
[05:06.52]That some neighbourhood kid
[05:09.52]Wandered in on some bums
[05:13.18]In the world where they hid
[05 :16.45]But they werent there
[05:19.43]So they couldnt see
[05:22.67]By an old neon star
[05:24.84]On that night,
[05: 25.26]Christmas
[05:29.44]When the snow it was falling
[05:32.94]And neon was calling
[05:36.41]In case you should wonder
[05:39.82] In case you should care
[05:44.82]Why we on our own
[05:47.42]Never went home?
[05:51.62]On that night of all nights
[05:58.05]We were already there
