The Wonder

A wilderness of white
I feel nostalgia
A wonderland of wondering
What happened
And on this lonely midnight clear
I wonder when she disappeared
When did she trade make believe for madness
Dancing in the snow will she ever know
Every year she grows
The magic gets colder
As she gets older
As the years go by life turns out the lights
Everything inside
Says turn your heart colder
Grow up, get older

But there never was a silent night
Inside her head of swirling lights
Of angel choirs and Santa's sled
Of red-nosed deers and manger beds
Upon the rooftop of her heart
She heard the bells she saw the star
But somewhere in the bustling she blundered
She forgot the wonder

Concrete jungle, city dreams
Third floor walk up, diamond ring
Do you think that little girl would be proud of me
And if I met her would she know
I stopped believing long ago
In peace on earth and mistletoe and baby kings

Dashing through the snow will she ever know
Every year she grows believing gets harder
As she gets smarter
As the years go by life turns out the lights
Everything inside says no don't you let her
But she remembers

That there never was a silent night
Inside her head of swirling lights
Of angel choirs and Santa's sled
Of red-nosed deers and manger beds
Upon the rooftop of her heart
She heard the bells she saw the star
But somewhere in the bustling she blundered
She forgot the wonder
The wonder

Here I am on Christmas Eve
My little girl with eyes so big
Watching out the window at the frost
And somewhere in those sparkling eyes
Is a little girl I recognize
And she shows me a world I thought I'd lost

And there is never is a silent night
Inside her head of swirling lights
Of angel choirs and Santa's sled
Of red-nosed deers and manger beds
Upon the rooftop of her heart
She hears the bells she sees the star
And somewhere in her eyes I discover
I forgot the wonder
I forgot the wonder

And I believe in silent nights
And baby kings and swirling lights
And angel choirs and Santa's sled
And red nosed deers and manger beds
And maybe I believe again
In peace on earth good will to men
And maybe this is the year I discover
The rooftop of my heart starts to uncover
Or maybe it's the fact it's the fact that I'm your mother
You helped me find the wonder
The wonder
