THE FIRST CHRISTMAS STAR © Krista Detor, The Silver Wood: Wintersongs I spend all the year wondering what will it be There in the morning under the tree And I whisper my wish on the first Christmas Star Is the moon shining on you wherever you are? I spend all the year wondering, how have you been Still reading Shakespeare, was it vodka or gin? And I wonder again in the blue Christmas light If somebody else loves you this Christmas Eve night I'd forget if I could but you know it's no good All I wanted was you – nice or naughty – I should Call you up, say hello, how've you been, where'd you go? What I'd give for one minute ‘neath the sweet mistletoe But I spend the night wondering if you're wondering too I'll have my pride in the morning, but I won't have you I'd forget if I could but you know it's no good All I wanted was you – nice or naughty – I should Call you up, say hello, how've you been, where'd you go? What I'd give for a minute ‘neath the sweet mistletoe But I spend the night wondering if maybe this year I'll ring the number I have for you, dear And then I'll get my wish on the first Christmas Star That you'll come back, my darling, and bring back my car.
