Over The Rhine
"Darlin' (Christmas is Coming)"

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
