lyrics

Little sparrow in the brush,
Sheltered from the driven snow
Never frets what she doesn’t have
As the howling winds of winter blow
All throughout this lonely world it’s Christmas,
And we’re discontented,
Craving to fill the void so desperately.

Can’t we share a little peace on earth,
A season of goodwill with our fellow men?
Can’t we cast our joy into the wind?
And let a little peace on earth begin.

Old man shivers in a shotgun house,
Eats dinner from an old tin can.
Monthly pension just covers the rent,
He misses his family again.
Will he find companionship this Christmas?
(But he’s all alone).
Wordless teardrops fall in the silent night.
