• She listened rather closely,
    and sat there rather still.
    On Christmas Eve, at 12 o' clock exactly
    just waiting...
    waiting...
    waiting.

    She discreetly moved to the window
    and looked up at the
    blue-gray sky.
    Closing her eyes,
    She wished
    and wished
    and wished...
    For a white Christmas.

    Silly her! She lives in
    a warm town!
    A beach town...
    An unsnowy town...
    What a bother!

    Nevertheless!
    She turned to the sky
    And wished for the beautiful flakes
    that she's only ever seen on tv
    and wished...
    and wished...
    and wished...

    Sighing sadly,
    The girl went to bed.
    A tear slipped down her cheek,
    And she quickly fell asleep.

    Darling, wake up! Said her mother.
    She rubbed her sleepy eye.
    It's a Christmas miracle!
    Look, be amazed!
    It's snowing in California!

    The girl tumbled to the window
    and didn't believe her eyes.
    What she was seeing was,
    Well, Impossible!

    But it fell quietly,
    a perfect snow
    and frosted windows.
    and she closed her eyes
    and cried...
    and cried...
    and cried tears of joy!
    It was perfect!
    A Christmas wish come true.
