Uncle Bonsai The Inessential Uncle Bonsai Silent Night My father's house was warm at night he used to sing me lullabyes just like his father before him always did just like his mother would have done if she had lived My father's house was safe at night he used to sleep just down the hall just like his father before him always would when he was old when times were good He found the time He found a way Piece by piece day by day Oh you look so pretty don't forget to say your prayers I will rock you 'till your sleeping and I'll carry you upstairs and I'll see you in the morning and I'll see you in your dreams I will always be here when you need me Silent night, holy night I left a light on in the hallway All is warm, all is bright I hold my visions in my hand Silent night, holy night life goes on beyond my eyelids All is safe, out of sight I was away at school the night I heard the news that I was all alone from a strangers voice on the hallway phone She had to call collect and mispronounced my name said that I should be there on the morning train There was no one to lead me no one to take me home Silent night, holy night I left a light on in the hallway All is warm, all is bright I hold my visions in my hand Silent night, holy night life goes on beyond my eyelids All is safe, out of sight My father's house Is still at night I hear the silence in the walls I hear the footsteps in the halls Just like the child inside me used to do When she was scared and wide awake She had the room to keep her warm Safe from fears, safe from harm Silent night, holy night I left a light on in the hallway All is warm, all is bright I keep my visions in my hand Silent night, holy night Life goes on beyond my eyelids All is safe, out of sight My father's house is still at night I hear the silence in the walls I hear the footsteps in the halls just like the child inside me used to do when she was scared and wide awake She had her room to keep her warm Safe from fears, safe from harm Silent night, holy night I left a light on in the hallway All is warm, all is bright I keep my visions in my hand Silent night, holy night Life goes on beyond my eyelids All is safe, out of sight |
