It's what I call ‘the spirit of the blues'|It's love for life|It's in the tender touch|of a midnight moon|On my guitar lines|While I try to light a candle in your heart|Light a candle in your heart||And you all know that nothing lasts for long|We all come and go|Sisters and brothers, sons and daughters|Searching for love|Gettin' thru the sorrows in our lives|Thru the sorrows in our lives||It's not that (so) easy |It's not that easy|We're livin' in this old world|Guided by your light||For all of you children|The hope never dies|There will be a Christmas|Every year of your life||I'm standing here and I sing the blues|The music flows|Out of this room over an endless roof|Up to a sparkling star|Sweet and low, a sad slow melody|That kisses you|And comforts me, 'cause ||It's not that easy|It's not that easy|We're livin' in this old world|Guided by your light||For all of you children|The hope never dies|There will be a Christmas|Every year of your life|
