'Trade in this real world
for Christmas with you...'

Feeling alone at Christmas can be a very emotional experience. This beautiful Melanie song is appropriate for any season, any day of the week, any time at all. We've all missed someone special at some time in our lives.

And when I remember how good your love feels
The real world goes slipping away
And though it's just dreaming I make your love true
And I'd  trade in this real world for Christmas with you

I go to a wonderland in the moonlight glow
Where most of me is feeling alone
And we'll make snow angels in the new fallen snow
Make tracks from our heaven to the place we call home

And though it's just Christmas is there anything else
Sometimes I awaken to question myself
What fools, what children, to follow the heart
For a dream that might last just one night
And something that doesn't speak English says do
Trade in this real world for Christmas with you

And though it's just Christmas is there anything else
Sometimes I awaken to question myself
What fools, what children, to follow the heart
For a dream that might last just one night
And something that doesn't speak English says do
Trade in this real world for Christmas with you
And something with wings and speaks only in blue
Tells me trade in this real world for Christmas with you
