Lay your head down
And sleep on my shoulder
Lay your head down
And start a new dream
And for tonight
The moment is over

Drift in a lullaby

[1.]
God rest ye merry gentlemen
God rest ye merry gentlemen

[simultaneously - add a new stanza each second time]

[2.]
There up in the sky a star to follow

Time only time could never take me away from you
And why should it try time never cares just what we do
It just sits on a star and gazes down
Dropping its moments all around
And if I could wish upon that star
I would find what you dream and then ask god to grant it

I wanted to say this long before this dark would fall

An angel came down, one night to the Earth
A mission from God, to find out the worth
Of everything that His children had done
Since that winter night, the birth of His son

And then a sound filled the night
In the cold winter air
And in the midst of his flight,

An angel returned
That night through the sky
But time it was short
He had to decide

And so as he flew
Back over the land
A gift for his Lord

Deep inside this Christmas Eve
Watching as the hours leave
Gently drifting in the air
Shadows of an angel's share
Christmas lights
On Christmas nights
With peace for every nation
Stable scenes

time
standing all alone
I bled for you
I wanted to
each drop my own

slowly they depart
but fall in vain

[Instrumental]

[Once more back in 1827 Vienna,
he tells Fate that he would not change a thing from
his past and risk losing the music.
The music is who he is, the reason for his existence.
Also, having seen the influence of his music on so
many lives, he knows that he could never give the music

Late in summer
Staring out the window
Only seven
Tell me what could she know
The world would never understand
But they don't see what she still can
What does she see
What does she know

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas

The hope that he brings
The hope that he brings
The hope that he brings

Somewhere beyond where the light rarely goes
Somewhere beyond where the dark barely breathes
Somewhere this night where the dark only knows
She awaits ever patient
She awaits rarely seen
But her moments are taken
For in the dead of the night
Gathering light

Christmas time in the middle of a city
Seeking its salvation
With every string of lights
That suddenly appears
Children stare with new found wonder
No one dares to break the trance
Every wish is carefully numbered
God has granted all a second chance

JUST ANOTHER NIGHT IN NEW YORK CITY
SNOW COMES DOWN LOOKS REAL PRETTY
DON’T KNOW HOW BUT SUDDENLY THERE YOU ARE
WITH JELLY ROLL MORTON PLAYIN’ FOR THE BAR

INSIDE HERE, LIGHTS ARE LOW
BUT EACH SONG HAS ITS OWN GLOW
AS HE FLOATS THEM THROUGH THAT SMOKEY AIR

In a city after midnight
'Neath the halo of a street light
Where the dreams die, as the blood dries
On the wounds we keep hidden from view

In the safety of this darkness
As it hides all time has tarnished
The forbidden, unforgiven

Don't go, does it have to be this way?
Can't we have just one more chance?
Those who know they will not say

Must this be the final dance in our lives as time just moves on?
Yesterday's years are too quickly gone
All visions fade as world's fall apart
Decisions are made but they're in this dark now, they're in this dark now

He believed in the things
That he always thought he knew
And had done all the things
That he always wanted to do
Collecting each thing reflecting his worth
But now he pondered
How he had wandered this earth
For we all seem to give our lives away

Joy to the world
The Lord has come
Let earth
Receive her king

Now it was long ago
When it all began
Back in Bethlehem

Time, could you please help me
I had a memory
I somehow lost in the past

Christmas but glittering
And I've been wondering
Do you hear the echoes it casts

(Theresa)

Lost in your dark
I see you there
What do you see beyond your stare
And you believe that no one else can know

What is this thing you keep inside

Could this night it last forever
Every moment held together
As if in a perfect trance
And such a thing could be

No one else would understand it
We would know the Gods had planned it
And for such a night as this

[MEPHISTOPHELES]

ALL OF YOUR LIFE NOW
YOU HAVE DENIED
THERE'D BE A TIME
WHEN YOU'D EVER DIE
STILL IT'S BEEN RUMORED THIS THING MUST BE

And in the dark he sits alone
To watch his final hours breathing
While unconcerned upon the wall
The clock it ticks away the time

No need for words for in the dark
All words have long since lost their meaning
Still when they whisper in his ear

There is a child and she sleeps in the gutter
Don't close your eyes and she's easy to see
She is not your child
She's always another's
And those you abandon
They are left to me

And know I will impale her like a knife

Fate then reminded him It was here you first met Haydn
And walked through palaces filled with art
And studied with your childhood hero
The legendary Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
It was here, as you improvised together
That Amadeus became your brother
Your melodies weaving seamlessly
As each note seemed to dare another

Remember last Christmas eve
When we sat next to our first tree
Ornaments reflected light
Of a candle in the night

And I gave you a music box
Back then it seemed like so much
We watched it go round and round

(lieutenant)

i have been this way before
check each window
every door
for a passage through
this night
this night

Looking at his son across the room
He feared to cross that divide
But how long could he stay in this dark
That allows us all to hide

Is there a wrong so great in life
That it undoes every good we've ever done
Is there an act so good it would undo all our wrongs

In an old city bar
That is never too far
From the places that gather
The dreams that have been

In the safety of night
With its old neon light
It beckons to strangers

There is an ornament
Lost inside the night
There on a Christmas tree
With a thousand lights
No one can see her
She's standing all alone

Somewhere she glistens where no one can see

Since the time when ra and isis
Raised the sphinx out of the sand
And Apollo dreamed Athena
And men began to understand

That when darkness folds on darkness
In the restless tides of night
And lightning raises shadows

Christmas time
On a cold December morning
All is calm
And the world is still asleep
Christmas lights
That have been caught without warning
Gently glitter on
Stars to wish upon

You were the dream that survived
Lost in the darkness of eternity
You were the hope kept alive
Embraced by tomorrows that we all could never quite see

You had a beauty denied
You were the moment

He won the war, in a foreign land
That was no hero, that was my old man
And he came back home, where he met his wife
And he raised his kids, while he made a life

Now he never preached, though he always knew
And we watched him close, just to pick up clues
And sometimes late, in the dead of night

(Drug Dealer)

Lines.
Of a tale.
Cut in the face of a crowd,
sentenced no bail...

There.

In this room where shadows live
And ghosts that failed learn time forgives
Welcome, friends, please stay awhile
Our story starts with one small child
Who spends this night in attics dark
Where dreams are stored like sleeping hearts
And so it's here that they must wait
'Till someone wishes them awake

ON A STREET IN THE NIGHT
IN THE COLD WINTER’S LIGHT
A CHILD STANDS ALONE AND SHE’S WAITING

AND THE LIGHT THAT’S OUT THERE
IT JUST HANGS IN THE AIR
AS IF IT WAS JUST HESITATING

In this world of circumstance
Children never fear forever
And this moment that enchants
Someday we may both remember

Then
Maybe then
If we are still alive

In the middle of a forest
There's a clearing by a stream
Where a mother holds her newborn
And the child begins to dream

And he dreams of hopes unspoken
When the tears of man will cease
And his mother holds him closer

Sleep
Don't turn away
You are the safest way into
Tomorrow

Dreams
If you will stay
Or at least the best parts let us

A railway station
On a long forgotten line
No destination
But it always leaves on time

He buys his ticket
As the train prepares to leave
Don't want to miss it

Now why this man's soul was bleeding
The angel had to understand
So invisible, he stood by him
And then gently touched his hand

Which caused the man to stand there still
Despite the winter's cold
And while he stood there in that trance

[Music & Lyrics: Paul O'Neill, Jon Oliva]

There was a cold winter night
Where the dark went on forever
And the world seemed like a
Dream gone astray

And somehow there on this night

There in this night
There is a life
Someone who waits for me
Only a child
Dreams and a smile
Waiting to play
And now she's found
Snow on the ground

There was a life
Was there before
But somehow here upon this night
It now means more

And all those words
She tried to say
I've now forgotten

So, tell me Christmas
Are we wise
To believe in things we never see
Are prayers just wishes in disguise
And are these wishes being granted me
For now I see
The answering
To every prayer I've prayed

sometimes slowly
time brings revelation

waiting softly
for someone to believe

that the ghosts we've
hidden or left to die

What child this night whose dreams take flight?
What child somewhere sleeps unaware?
What life that yet has no regrets?
What child, who knows what dreams I've closed?

Time floats on
As I write these letters that you'll never see
Still each one's gone

Time you should be sleeping
Everyone around you
Is already dreaming
And closely by

Stars are looking downward
Glad that they have found you
Watching and protecting

What good this deafness
That my whole life I have dread
What good this deafness
With these voices in my head

What good this deafness
If this prattle I must hear
If I were blind I'm sure they wouldn't disappear

And here in the night as I feel the inferno
I stare in the dark thinking what is eternal
The man or the moment the act or the reason
These thoughts fill my head as I contemplate treason

Of dreams I have had and dreams I have pondered
When late in the night my mind it would wander
To things I have done and then quickly regretted
