My Favorite Christmas Song

Dave Matthews Band - Christmas Song Lyrics
From the album Remember Two Things Year: 1993

She was his girl; he was her boyfriend Soon be his wife;

take him as her husband

A surprise on the way, anyway, anyway

One healthy little giggling dribbling baby boy

The wise men came three made their way

To shower him love While he lay in the hay

Shower him with love love love

Love love love Love, love is all around
Not very much of his childhood was known

Kept his mother Mary worried

Always out on his own He met another

Mary for a reasonable fee,

less than Reputable was known to be
His heart was full of love love love

Love love love Love love is all around

When Jesus Christ was nailed to his tree,

He said "Oh Daddy-o I can see how it all soon will be I came to shed

a little light on this darkening scene

Instead I fear I spill the blood of my children all around."
The blood of our children all aroundThe blood of our children all around

The blood of our children all around

So the story goes -

so I'm toldThe people he knew wereLess than golden hearted

Gamblers and robbers Drinkers and jokers,

all soul searchers Searching for love love love Love love love Love love is all around
Preparations were made For his celebration day

He said "Eat this bread think of it as me,

Drink this wine and dream it will beThe blood of our children all around

"The blood of our children all around

The blood of our children all around

The blood of our children all around
Father up above, why in all this hatred have you filled Me up with love

Fill me love love love Love love

And the blood of our children all around.
