The Cats - A New Born Baby lyrics

There were always snowflakes falling down Slowly whirling lazily landing on the ground On our way to church on christmas night That's about how things are printed in my mind When I was young snowflakes were whiter On those Christmas nights, those Christmas nights Safely gliding 'cross the snow at daddy's hand In a white world, asking million things like small boys can From the churchbell tower trumpets used to play The well known old tunes, through the cold finding their way When I was young old tunes were younger On those Christmas nights, those Christmas nights A new born baby he was my brother and in another way my Lord The virgin lady, she was my mother 'Cause only small boys can afford to be so close to God We went early to make sure a view On the stable aiming for the first or second view Joseph always seemed to wink his eye, Just for me alone. and daddy told me not to lie When I was young statues were living On those Christmas nights those Christmas nights A new born baby he was my brother and another way my Lord The virgin lady she was my mother Cause only small boys can afford to be so close to God
