Lyrics for Alfie: The Christmas Tree by John Denver:
| | | Artist: | John Denver |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Alfie: The Christmas Tree | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 207 | | | | Lyrics: | Did you ever hear the story of the Christmas Tree
who just didn't want to change the show
He liked living in the woods and playing with squirrels
He liked icicles and snow.
He liked wolves and eagles and grizzly bears
and critters and creatures that crawled
Why bugs were some of his very best friends
Spiders and ants and all.
Now that's
not to say that he ever looked down
on the vision of twinkling lights
Or on mirrored
bubbles and peppermint canes
And a thousand other delights
And he often had dreams of
tiny reindeer
and a jolly old man and a sleigh full of toys
and presents and wonderful
things
And the story of Christmas Day
Oh, Alfie believed in Christmas all right
He was full of Christmas cheer
All of each and every day
and all throughout the year
To him it was more than a special time
much more than a special day
It was more
than a beautiful story
It was a special kind of way
You see, some folks have never
heard a jingle bell ring
And they've never heard of Santa Claus
They've never heard the
story of the son of God
And that made Alfie pause.
Did that mean that they'd never
know of peace on earth
or the brotherhood of man
Or know how to love, or know how to give
If they can't...no one can.
You see, life is a very special kind of thing
not
just for a chosen few
But for each and every living breathing thing
Not just me and you
So in your Christmas prayers this year
Alfie asked me if I'd ask you
Say a
prayer for the wind, and the water, and the wood
And those who live there, too. | | | |
