I can hear her small feet running
Past my bedroom down the hallway
Trying not to wake me
As she races for the tree

Her sleepy eyes are wide with wonder
Cause Santa drank his milk and left his crumbs
I can't miss this moment
Wait for me, wait for me

She's filled with joy and innocence
She reminds me of myself
Cause watching her I see
How my mother's eyes saw me
And Christmas never felt like this

I'm reliving all she's feeling
Seeing reindeers and believing
Maybe Santa left me
The doll that I wished for

Through her life I've found the reason
Why we celebrate the season
Cause the gift I treasure most
Is standing next to me
She's filled with joy and innocence
She reminds me of myself
Cause watching her I see
How my mother's eyes saw me
And Christmas never felt like this

In my dreams
I see a kinder world
This is my Christmas wish
For my little girl

She's filled with joy and innocence
She reminds me of myself
Cause watching her I see
How my mother's eyes saw me
And Christmas never felt like this
