he s gone two thousand miles it s very far the snow is falling down gets colder day by day i miss you the children will sing he ll be back at christmas time in these frozen and silent nights sometimes in the dream you appear outside under the purple sky diamonds in the snow sparkle our hearts were singing it felt like christmas time two thousand miles is very far through the snow i think of you wherever you go he s gone two thousand miles it s very far the snow is falling down gets colder day by day i miss you i hear people singing it must be christmas time i can hear people singing it must be christmas time
