The Power is Out

We saw the flicker before it went out
Mommy tried the switch it failed I shout
What will we do?
This can't be true!
The house is in the dark
With our whole avenue

Don't cry daddy will make it right
We don't need the screens on this special night
He went downstairs
Grabbed a box by the chairs
He gave me one and said this prayer

It's Christmas Eve and the streets are dark
We'll light the match and create the spark
We're going to feel the magic tonight
It's Christmas Eve and the power is out
Let your candle shine throughout the night

Daddy I see but I'm getting cold
Son you forgot what you've just been told
You have a light
To make this right
What could you do with your candle so bright

So to the hearth I ran to see
If Saint Nick was in the chimney
No bark from the dog
Let's drink some nog
And with these candles we'll light this log

It's Christmas Eve and the streets are dark
We'll light the match and create the spark
We're going to feel the magic tonight
It's Christmas Eve and the power is out
Let your candle shine throughout the night
