From the 2004 album: The Lost Christmas Eve Words: Paul O'Neill Music: Paul O'Neill and Al Pitrelli Tempo: Moderately Key: Bb Timing: 3/4 Tuning: Down One Whole Step, Low to High D G C F A D [Narration] [N.C.] Like the sphinx knows silence And the pyramids know time Like sisyphus knew regret As he thought about his crime As julius knew betrayal As judas knew the kiss And david with his nervous hand Knew when not to miss And helen in her blindness Knew better how to touch And lincoln in his wisdom Knew the angels in each of us Like the delphi knew tomorrow Like crocodiles know the nile Like michelangelo knew stone A mother knows her baby's smile Then she placed her hands upon his lips In something akin to a kiss And in her arms he stayed asleep As the night grew dark and the child dreamt deep [Intro] C5 Bb [Verse] 1

Wait for me now

I will be there for you

This I will vow

I will be there

Bb Csus2 [Narration] [N.C.] And so it's here our story ends Exactly where it did start In that labyrinth of mystery We call the human heart For they say that without it No one can truly live And it also has been rumored That without it, we cannot forgive Merry Christmas!
