The star of Bethlehem
was shining
Across a Palestinian sky
The Church of the
Nativity was crying
And we looked on
who can tell me why
Where are the wise men
when they're wanted
Nowhere to be seen
like thieves in the night
The desert is
drifting every closer
The world won't
sleep well tonight
Where did the spirit
of Christmas go
Lost in the desert
or covered in snow
Where did the spirit
of Christmas go
If you can find it
please let me know
The shepherds
are in the fields sleeping
Waiting for a sign
to light up the sky
Heaven is moving ever closer
The promise of a child
born on high
Where did the spirit
of Christmas go
Lost in the desert
or covered in snow
Where did the spirit
of Christmas go
If you can find it
ple ase let me know
Looking for an answer
that escapes me
(Love set me free!)
If there is a reason
let me know (Whoa!)
Drifting slow through time
and space not knowing
where we are
How did we ever get this far
<Interlude>
Where did the spirit
of Christmas go
Lost in the desert
or covered in snow
Where did the spirit
of Christmas go
If you can find it
please let me know
Where did the spirit
of Christmas go
Lost in the desert
or covered in snow
Where did the spirit
of Christmas go
If you can find it
please let me know
Where did the spirit
of Christmas go
Lost in the desert
or covered in snow
Where did the spirit
of Christmas go
