Lyrics
When Christmas Trees Were Tall
Mark Elliott & Tony Ramey
I never will forget the first time that I saw
That big red suit and long white beard in the middle of the mall
I sat up on his lap and handed him my list
While mama took a Polaroid to put up on the fridge
When Christmas trees were tall and we were little kids
We?d lie beneath the branches dreaming of the gifts
We?d hear reindeer on the rooftops and Santa?s footsteps fall
It was easy to believe in things when Christmas trees were tall
There was really peace on earth on that silent night
All around the world one star was shining bright
The promise of tomorrow was there in every heart
As warm as that fireplace that flickered in the dark
When Christmas trees were tall and we were little kids
We?d lie beneath the branches dreaming of the gifts
We?d hear reindeer on the rooftops and Santa?s footsteps fall
It was easy to believe in things when Christmas trees were tall
How I wish I could believe in things like when Christmas trees were tall
