Maybe if I'd have been there one winter's night
Perhaps if a star had shone
To point me to the light
If I'd have played my drum
Like that other little boy did
If gold had been my reason to walk across the sand
If I'd have seen an angel dance across the sky
If she had looked into my eyes and told me why
And as the snow was kissing the clouds in the air
The savious knew my heart and I wasn't even there
And I am amazed
He was born to die
That winters night wasn't like any other
That winters night still makes me shiver
And all that I am
And all I ever hope to be
Was given in a child
Who was a lot like me
And that winters night
Wasn't like any other
I often wonder what those 3 men had to say
Did they leave their gifts and turn and walk away
And there was Mary, such a little girl
The crying babe in her arms
Was crying for the world
And Joseph stood right by
With hope in his eyes
