Page 4 Page 1 I’m dreaming of a white Christmas * See the northern lights Midnight Clear With every Christmas card I write Stop The Cavalry Bells Of Love Gaudete As they dance across the sky 11 (E. Sears/R. Storrs Willis) May your days be merry and bright (J. Lewie) (Isabelle’s Of Love) 02 (Trad.) They are inspiring And may all your Christmases be white They take your breath away It came upon the midnight clear Hey, Mr. Churchill comes over here 01 (A. Bell/V. Clarke) Gaudete, gaudete! Christus est natus That glorious song of old I’m dreaming of a white Christmas To say we’re doing splendidly Ex Maria virgine, gaudete! Some will walk alone People hiding in the shadows From angels bending near the earth Just like the ones I used to know But it’s very cold out here in the snow Gaudete, gaudete! Christus est natus They will never know the truth People stumbling in the dark To touch their harps of gold May your days be merry and bright Marching to and from the enemy Ex Maria virgine, gaudete! Hidden messages Angry shouts and accusations Peace on the earth, goodwill to men And may all your Christmases be white Oh, I say it’s tough, I have had enough Tempus adest gratiæ Shine like diamonds Can you stop the cavalry? Broken dreams and broken hearts From heaven’s all gracious King hoc quod optabamus Lay your words upon me kindly What we want, what we need The world in solemn stillness lay I have had to fight, almost every night Carmina lætitiæ devote reddamus Just to remind me Silver Bells is a touch of the healing hand To hear the angels sing 13 (R. Evans/J. Livingston) Down throughout these centuries Gaudete, gaudete! … I’m blinded by the light That is when I say, oh yes, yet again With a little emotion Still through the cloven skies they come Deus homo factus est natura mirante Whisper something gently to me Silver bells, silver bells Can you stop the cavalry? Can you hear the bells of love? With peaceful wings unfurled Mundus renovatus est a Christo regnante The words of love, you know Soon it will be Christmas day One day they’ll be loud enough And still their heavenly music floats Mary Bradley waits at home Ezechielis porta clausa pertransitur I’m blinded by the light O’er all the weary world City sidewalks, busy sidewalks In the nuclear fallout zone Someday all the world Unde lux est orta salus invenitur You make it wonderful Dressed in holiday style Wish I could be dancing now will hear them ringing Above its sad and lowly plains You make it wonderful In the air there’s a feeling of Christmas Too much tears and too much pain Ergo nostra contio psallat iam in lustro They bend on hovering wing In the arms of the girl I love Children laughing, people passing I believe we all can change Benedicat Domino Salus Regi nostro Innocence is so inspiring And ever o’er its Babel sounds Dub a dub a dum dum … Meeting smile after smile Hear the bells ring out a new beginning Like a child will dream at night The blessed angels sing Wish I was at home for Christmas And on every street corner you’ll hear I don’t believe in your religion Make It Wonderful When my ship comes in For lo! The days are hastening on Bang, goes another bomb So full of wonder and remorse Silver bells, silver bells I only know what I can see 03 (A. Bell/V. Clarke) By prophet seen of old on another town It’s Christmas time in the city So many sad, so many lonely When with the ever-circling years While the Czar and Jim have tea Tell me something new Ring a ling, hear them ring It’s only love that sets us free Shall come the time foretold If I get home, live to tell the tale There are stories to be told Sleep Quietly Soon it will be Christmas day What we want, what we need 04 (R. Heller) When the new heaven and earth I’ll run for all presidencies Dreams shattering Strings of street lights, even stop lights is a touch of the healing hand shall own the prince of peace, their king If I get elected I’ll stop Lies are flattering Sleep quietly my Jesus blink a bright red and green With a little emotion And the whole world send back the song I will stop the cavalry Walks across the stage Now close your dear eyes As the shoppers rush home Which now the angels sing Dub a dub a dum dum … Can you hear the bells of love? There are secrets to behold Above you shine God’s countless stars with their treasures Wish I was at home for Christmas One day they’ll be loud enough Thoughts are gathering Like diamonds in the sky Hear the snow crunch Someday all the world Light scattering Beside your bed an angel crew White Christmas See the kids bunch Wish I could be dancing now will hear them ringing Your cattle have fed 12 (I. Berlin) This is Santa’s big scene In the arms of the girl I love Too much tears and too much pain Lay your words upon me kindly Your mother stands in watchful prayer And above all this bustle you’ll hear Mary Bradley waits at home I believe we all can change Just to remind me I’m dreaming of a white Christmas In the nuclear fallout zone I’m blinded by the light And strokes your little head Just like the ones I used to know Silver bells, silver bells Hear the bells ring out a new beginning Wish I was at home for Christmas The shepherds leave their flocks as one Where the treetops glisten It’s Christmas time in the city Whisper something gently to me They bring you my love And children listen Ring a ling, hear them ring The forgotten lyrics sheet for »Snow Globe« by Erasure The words of love, you know *Available on the Limited Edition 3-CD Boxset, was brought to you by Jens Pielawa ([email protected]).

Page 2 Page 3 From far away the wise men three l’m all in a whirl, l’m a boy, l’m a girl, Melt away with my heart Well we got them beaten Their treasures they bring Loving Man who has everything Bleak Midwinter Blow it into the ash by a million miles 06 (A. Bell/V. Clarke) 08 (C. G. Rossetti/G. Holst) My whole wide world before your kneels Don’t need no diamonds, no gold rings Buried deep in the heart I just fall in love My Jesus little king I know that I can’t keep They won’t keep me warm In the bleak midwinter Of the ballerina star Cause you’re my fallen angel Sleep quietly my Jesus numbing out the pain l’ll be your loving man Frosty wind made moan Star don’t lose your shine With your disarming looks Now close your dear eyes I know that I can’t keep going on I’ll be your loving man Earth stood hard as iron Be sure to light the way became my alibi as nothing ever was Water like a stone Above you shine God’s countless stars Your every wish is my command Your essence is divine All bets are off, the party’s on I love how you loved me Like diamonds in the sky l’ll be your loving man Snow had fallen, snow on snow For these three gifts we bring So let’s away and drown out our sorrows Beside your bed an angel crew When I look in the mirror I’ll be your loving man Snow on snow It’s only a small offering of time So don’t be late and celebrate With cattle have fed You tell me that it’s time to move on Your every wish is my command In the bleak midwinter, long ago Spreading out like a blanket And party like there’ll be no tomorrow Go to where I wanna I hold my head up high Your mother stands in watchful prayer Our God, heaven cannot hold him For our tiny souls to keep I got my very best wishes for the season And strokes your little head No regrets and no turning back Though it hurts to say goodbye Sparkling pins and needles nor earth sustain Only wanted somebody to love Piercing a stream so deep l’m all in a whirl, l’m a boy, l’m a girl, Heaven and earth shall flee away I gave you a ride Well away in my dream who has everything The Christmas Song when he comes to reign when you gave me the reason Silent Night Is my heart made of tin 05 (Trad.) Don’t need no gold rings, no diamonds 07 (B.
