Fairytale of New York

'Twas Christmas Eve, babe In the drunk tank An old man said to me "Won't see another one" And then he sang a song "The Rare Old Mountain Dew" I turned my face away And dreamed about you Got on a lucky one Came in 18-to-one I've got a feeling This year's for me and you So happy Christmas I love you, baby I can see a better time When all our dreams come true They've got cars big as bars, they've got rivers of gold But the wind goes right through you, it's no place for the old When you first took my hand on a cold Christmas Eve You promised me Broadway was waiting for me The boys of the NYPD choir Singing "Galway Bay" And the bells were ringing out For Christmas Day I could have been someone Well, so could anyone You took my dreams from me When I first found you I kept them with me, babe I put them with my own I can't make it all alone I've built my dreams 'round you The boys of the NYPD choir Singing "Galway Bay" And the bells are ringing out For Christmas Day And the bells were ringing out For Christmas Day
