You will hear the horns blow as the ships come sailing into your town.
All the children go running down to the docks to see what we have done.
And all the sailors go down
down to the bottom of the ocean
that's gray, not blue
and if you don't believe in ghosts
better close your eyes as they stand in front of you.
And so we celebrated the holidays, instead, without you
We dressed up real nice and smiled through the cold night without you
I ate cake, I blew out candles
I stayed up past the time that you would want me to
I left you drawings and I leave the light on for you
Now if I leave the light on you would come home
