Over the Rhine - Darlin' (Christmas is Coming) lyrics

So it's been a long year Every new day brings one more tear Till there's nothing left to cry My, my how time flies Like little children hiding their eyes We'll make it disappear Let's start a brand new year Darlin' Christmas is coming Salvation army bells are ringing Darlin' Christmas is coming Do you believe in angels singing Darlin' the snow is falling Falling like forgiveness from the sky If I could have anything What would I want this new year to bring Well, I'd want you here with me Tear these thorns from my heart Help the healing to start Let's set this old world free Let's start with you and me
