LYRIC FOR SALE

By Stevie Coates

Under the silvery light of a street lamp
I can hear a band begin to play
On the old cobbold streets of my home town
I can see the snow begin to lay

Yes I’m back in my home town
I see the tree standing in the square
Yes I’m back in my home town
Sweet Marie is waiting there

In the candlelit aisles of St Peters
I can hear the choir begin to sing
By the door there’s some old friends to greet us
In our coats and scarves we shuffle in

Yes I’m back in my home town
I see the tree standing in the square
Yes I’m back in my home town
Sweet Marie is waiting there

In the house I was born,by the fireside
I see the family gathered round the tree
I see the joy on their faces at Yuletide
I feel the joy Christmas brings to me

Yes I’m back in my home town
I see the tree standing in the square
Yes I’m back in my home town
Sweet Marie is waiting there.

Repeat chorus
