(Cyndi Lauper, Jan Pulsford)

Chorus:

Close your eyes December Child

And dream a while my little son and moon

May the stars be your crown

And may the earth guide you round and round



Snuggle up and let me hold kiss

Your baby breath in the dark and cold

On a silent night long ago

Another mother held her babe and told him



Chorus:

Close your eyes December Child

And dream a while my little son and moon

May the stars be your crown

And may the earth guide you round and round



They had come such a long long way

Rest your little head on me and I'll tell you of

A little king and his bed of hay

It is remembered every Christmas day



Little one, little son

All my life I've wished you welcome



Chorus:

Close your eyes December Child

And dream a while my little son and moon

May the stars be your crown

And may the earth guide you round and round
