In this room where shadows live
And ghosts that failed to learn time forgives
Welcome friends, stay awhile
Our story begins with one small child
Who spends this night in a palace dark
Where dreams are stored
Like sleeping hearts
Now, if you ask why this child is here
With all asleep and Christmas near
It seems she long ago left home
For reasons that are unknown
Time erased her tracks
Until she felt she could not go back
But this night will take her in
And here our story begins...
For also here, inside this night
Hidden deep and out of sight
Is one who came to be it seems
The caretaker of forgotten dreams....
"Dear Mom and Dad,
... I don't know how to ask this.
I'm sorry for....
I would like to please come home.
If you could please send me...."
He watched this child arrive
In this world where dreams survive
And in her eyes he saw the cost
Of all the dreams she had lost....
T.S.O. you rock!
