Christmas In My Soul

Christmas In My Soul
Music and Lyrics
by
Peter Link

It looks as though
There won’t be snow on Christmas
And the holly and the mistletoe
Were sold out long ago
The midtown rush was just a little too much
And this year santa and his reindeer
Never left the pole

Suddenly it just don’t seem like Christmas
Suddenly it don’t seem so natural

Looking for Christmas
Looking for Christmas
Looking for Christmas
Trying to find a little Christmas in my soul
Takin’ my time
Trying to find a little Christmas in my soul

But somehow a church bell caught my ear
Somehow a little child caught my eye
Somehow an old man playing on his trumpet
Stopped that drummer in me
With a ty- rie -die-dee-i
Rie -die-dee-i
Rie -die-dee-i-i-i-i

And suddenly it all seemed very simple
And suddenly it all seemed so natural

Looking for Christmas
Looking for Christmas
Looking for Christmas
Trying to find a little Christmas in my soul

Somehow the whole affair almost slipped on by
I nearly lost the childhood dream
I plumb forgot the reason why
And all my Christmas longings
Were simply left behind
As I went running through the wrappings
And the ribbons and the rhyme
And rollin’ through december
Like a man against time

Looking for Christmas
Looking for Christmas
Looking for Christmas
Trying to find a little Christmas in my soul
Takin’ my time
Trying to find a little Christmas in my soul
Takin’ my time
Trying to find a little Christmas in my soul
