Dave Matthews Band - Christmas Song lyrics

She was his girlhe was her boyfriend

She'd be his wifeand make him her husband.

A surprise on the way any day any day

One healthy little gigglingdribbling baby boy

The wisemen camethree made their way

To shower him with love while he lay in the hay

Shower him with lovelovelove

Lovelovelove

Lovelove was all around.

Not very much of his childhood was known

Kept his mother mary worried always out on his own

He met another marywho for a reasonable fee

Less than reputable was known to be

His heart was full of lovelovelove

Lovelovelove

Lovelove was all around.

When jesus christ nailed to his tree

Said oh daddy-oI can see how it all soon will be

I came to shed a little light on this darkening sea

Instead I fear I've spilled the blood of my children all around

The blood of my children all around

The blood of my children's all around.

So I'm toldso the story goes

The people he knew were less than golden-hearted

Gamblers and robbers

Drinkers and jokersall soul searchers

Like you and melike you and me

Rumors insisted that he soon would be

For his deveations taken into custody

By the authoritiesless informed than he

Drinkers and jokersall soul searchers

Searching for lovelovelove

Lovelovelove

Lovelove was all around.

Preparations were made for a celebration day

He said eat this bread but think of it as me

Drink this wine and dream it will be the blood of our children all around

The blood of our children all around

The blood of our children all around

Father up above

Why in all this hatred do you fill me up with lovelovelove

Lovelovelove

Lovelove is all around

Father up above

Why in all this hatred do you fill me up with lovefill me loveloveyeah

Lovelovelove

Loveloveand the blood of our children all around.
