Faith Evans - The Day That Love Began lyrics

Once upon a Christmas Eve A shepherd who believed That peace Could come to any man Made a promise To a star above The day that love began "I will give to him My lamb A shepherd's all I am" And so he walked The lonely sand To find the place His heart was dreaming of The day that love began Over meadows Over mountains They came from valleys And from streams Every poet and every king And one little shepherd With a drea&109 As the shepherd Knelt to pray His lamb just ran away And tear drops Filled his lonely hand He broke his promise To a star above The day that love began Then the smiling face Of Mary Beckoned the shepherd To her side Today you gave Him The best gift of all The moment That you cried Once upon a Christmas Eve A shepherd who believed That peace Could come to any man Found the place His heart was dreaming of And he made a promise To a star above Said he found the place That his heart Was dreaming of The day that love began Began The day that love began
