lyrics

Close your eyes and go back to sleep
Lay the presents under the tree
Reach out your hands to hold each other
Forget the times you messed it up cause
I know they’ll say it’s really over, but I won’t ever believe it.
Sitting in my old room and I wonder if I’ll ever read all the
books you gave me, an arrow to the Author, lands down on Christmas Day

We are the misfit toys. We are the ones you break and never take
home to your boys, home to your girls, but anyway
It’s the holidays; it’s a chance to make amends, the hope that we could change,
a hope that you will love us anyway

Close your eyes and go back to sleep
Lay your presents under the tree
The years so long, we can’t remember
The leaves are gone, the trees surrender,
the whole mess of the world is tender, and I just wanna believe it
The tree lights bright as day; I’m wide awake.
No other way, but love!

Looking through old photographs, I wonder why the world is fleeting.
And when I hold them, gone but not forgotten, dreaming of Christmas Day.

We are the misfit toys. We are the ones you break and never take
home to your boys, home to your girls, but anyway
It’s the holidays; it’s a chance to make amends, the hope that we could change,
a hope that you will love us anyway
