Lyrics

I'd Love Your Heart for Christmas
©2012 by Nadia Cripps (music, piano) and Gerry Callaghan/gerrybhoy(lyrics, vocals). 

Snowflakes 
As large as lion's teeth 
Drift down upon 
The souls beneath 
The bitter chill 
Of a winter's night 
Is softened by 
The stars so bright

Just above the madness 
In which shoppers delight 
The sound of children singing 
Come all ye faithfull 
Come all ye faithful

I looked at you 
In your Tibetan hat 
With the flaps pulled down 
And I knew that 
Christmas time 
Was the perfect time 
To tell you 
Tell you I love you 
Tell you I love you

The words fell out 
Over frosted lips 
In vapour cloud 
And dissapeared 
I lifted a flap 
And tried again 
But you just said 
I was tickling

Then a band struck up 
It wasn't to be 
So I stayed in the moment 
Just you and me 
I thought 
That this was 
The perfect time 
To capture your heart 
And you'd take mine 
For Christmas 
Have it for Christmas

We took a ride 
On a horse and cart 
Through the City's streets 
And how we laughed 
Joy filled the air 
Love was everywhere 
But my aim was off 
With Cupid's dart

You turned to me 
With a smile on your face 
And told me there's something 
You wanted to say 
You said that this was 
The perfect time 
To tell you 
Tell you I love you

I read your lips 
I'd love your heart 
For Christmas

I read your lips 
I'd love your heart 
For Christmas
