Every Christmas we'd wait inside,
with cookies and milk,
together we'd hide.
By the tree, or on the stairs.
Wishing Santa would answer our prayers.
We waited all night for Santa to appear
Just like in the books and the stories we'd hear.
Everytime we heard a clank or a clink
Together we thought is it ol' Saint Nick?
The years went by and he never came
But I always thought just the same
That one day Ol' Saint Nick would appear
and bring me back some holiday cheer
Now my big dog and me still wait by the tree
In hopes that Saint Nick didn't forget me.
Because I believe that one day I'll see
Santa Claus putting gifts under my Christmas tree.
