Merry Christmas!

lyrics

It was the simplest gesture;
You knit a Christmas Cloth for me
with a little note of explanation
about how it was the first Christmas Cloth
you ever knit for anyone.
The Christmas Cloth!
The Christmas Cloth!

I carried that Christmas Cloth for a year.
What are you wishin' for this Christmas?

I’m wishin' for a grand piano!
I’m wishin' for a voice to sing!
I’m wishin' for the courage to talk to you
and tell you how precious I was
about that Christmas Cloth that you knit for me
back in 2016.
The Christmas Cloth!
The Christmas Cloth!

I carried that Christmas Cloth for a year
What are you wishin' for this Christmas?

I was wishin' for a mantra.
I was wishin' for the meaning of Christmas,
so I carried that Christmas Cloth for a year.

It’s lovely to give and receive at Christmas,
but I think that my Christmas Cloth is the best gift
'cause you chose it all!
Every detail!
Every little knot you made
was made with care, it's the bond we share
for another year.
Happy Birthday! Merry Christmas!

I carried that Christmas Cloth for a year
What are you wishin' for this Christmas?

You picked out those colours
Red White and Green
and I picked that Christmas Cloth to carry for a year.
What are you wishin' for this Christmas?
