Samuel, Oh How You've Changed
Most of the better bredWoolen toys have gone to bedAnd the teddy bear is a-sleeping in the cupboardAnd the wooden soldiers allAnd the rubber bouncing ballAre listening to the tales of mother HubbardBut the fairy lights are darkOn the Christmas tree as restlesslyI stand here forgotten and aloneI've been too long on the floor,I can't stay here any moreSo Jenny won't you please take me home.Oh the statues that I seeAre made out of blackest ivoryBut I pass them by never guessing of their meaningAnd a million voices cryAs I walk across the skyThough it's restless here, why it's only in-betweeningFor the journey that I'm onLetras de cancionesIs incomplete so to my feetI must rise now and travel on aloneAh, but if you've got some time to spendIn between now and the endOh Jenny won't you please take me home.Now almost every word that I've said that you have heardHides another thought left unspokenAnd if I may not reach it through the gutter of my speechThen it best be left unsaid than lie unbrokenAnd if you wish to see, then from time to timeLook in my eyesOh the gold is not far beneath the stoneIf that will not say, it doesn't matter anyway Jenny won't you please take me home.
