Letra

How long has he shone in the distance?
How long has he hidden from view?
How long have you longed to belong to his world;
how often does he think of you?
I know a few things about fathers,
I've met one or two in my day.
And one thing I've learned is they always seem bigger
and better from farther away...
You stare at the screen in December
you glimpse him each year on TV:
a thick woollen coat with a scarf round his throat
and a smile that you only can see.
Announced by a jingle of sleigh-bells
he'll sail into view through the mist.
He's handsome, he's tall, he's the substance of all of your dreams,
and he doesn't exist.
Cold wind in his hair,
gold skyline behind him.
I wish it were true,
I wish we could find him...
You're locked in the sorcerer's castle.
You're lost in the forest at night.
You're waiting for someone to ride to the rescue
and tell you you turned out all right.
It sounds like the fairytale ending,
but on the last page there's a twist:
the petals turn black, the coachmen turn back into rats
and he doesn't exist...
This snowman you've made;
this future beside him
all just melts away:
there's nothing inside him...
He's finally ready to meet you,
to hold out his heart in his fist;
to show up at last
and make up for the past
for the days and the years that he missed...
And he'll ruffle your hair,
like he's always been there;
and I know it's not fair
that he doesn't exist.
