Here Comes The Night
Starlite Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus,
Right down Santa Claus lane
Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer
Pullin' on the reins
Bells are ringin', children singin'
All is merry and bright
Hang your stockings and say your prayers
'Cause Santa Claus is comin' tonight!

Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus,
Right down Santa Claus lane
He's got a bag that's filled with toys
For the boys and girls again
Hear those sleigh bells jingle jangle,
What a beautiful sight
Jump in your bed, cover up your head
'Cause Santa Claus is comin' tonight!

Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus,
Right down Santa Claus lane
He doesn't care if you're rich or poor
'Cause he loves you just the same
Santa knows that we're God's children
That makes everything right




Fill your hearts with Christmas cheer
'Cause Santa's comin' tonight!

Крутая песня. Только вот солисту надо как-то свободнее двигаться. Выглядит очень скованным и движения получаются нелепые
