When I was small the pretty lady livin' right next door said to me
Tonight my santa claus will knock right at the stroke of eight

And I said "he's just in the picture books"
Then I gave her funny looks
She said "just you wait"

She said "I know you don't believe me now or understand what I say"
And then she wicked at me and said someday you'll understand

You will know first time that you fall in love
You'll feel what I'm speaking of and she said to me

Now my lover is santa claus my baby santa claus
Flyin' from the north pole keepin' me warm
My true lover is santa claus
Tall and handsome my santa claus flyin' from the north pole to my arms

I still remember her when sleigh bells ring and snow falls down to the ground
They're really happy now and livin' in another town
It was true santa really came for her
Only wish that I was sure mine will come for me

Now my lover is santa claus my baby santa claus
Flyin' from the north pole keepin' me warm
My true lover is santa claus
Tall and handsome my santa claus
Flyin' from the north pole to my arms

One cold night straight up at the stroke of eight
He brought presents just for me the best one was his love

Now my lover is santa claus my baby santa claus
Flyin' from the north pole keepin' me warm
My true lover is santa claus
Tall and handsome my santa claus
Flyin' from the north pole to my arms
