DEAR SANTA

v1:
My name is Ethan Allen Cole
I may be only eight years old
But there?s a lot of stuff I know
That grown-up?s think I don?t
Like when mommy cries herself to sleep
I see the tear stains on her cheeks
She tries to keep the bad from me
She says I?m too young to know

But I know grown-ups have troubles
And sometimes you just can?t run and hide
And there?s a brave kid beneath these covers
Writing you tonight

Chorus:
Dear Santa all I want
Is daddy home for Christmas
Only you and baby Jesus
Know how much he misses us
So take back all my presents
All I want is hugs and kisses
And daddy home?for Christmas

(Female Vocal)

My name is Mary Beth Malone
I may be only nine years old
But I play mommy to a four year old
And I?m not yet half grown
Daddy does the best he can
I do my best to lend a hand
Baby brother don?t understand
Why mommy had to go

But I know grown-ups have troubles
And sometimes it?s hard to know what?s right
And there?s a brave kid beneath these covers
Writing you tonight

Chorus:
Dear Santa all I want
Is Mommy home for Christmas
Only you and baby Jesus
Know how much she misses us
You can take back all my presents
All I want is hugs and kisses
And mommy home for Christmas

Bridge:
Grown-ups never listen to us anyway
They think we?re too young to understand,
They say, why don?t you children? just go outside and play
But no one wants to sing and dance,
And it?s hard to laugh ?when your heart is sad

TAG
So? Santa
Take back all our presents
All we want is hugs and kisses
And our mommy?s and our daddy?s
Home with us? for Christmas
Please bring our mommy?s and our daddy?s
Home to us? this Christmas
