I’m brought out from the dark and cold garage
To be decorated with light and ornaments like a collage
I shine and sparkle like an actor in the spotlight in a play
Brightening this home on Christmas Day
Gifts so many gifts placed under me with so much generosity
Kids looking under this tree with so much curiosity
I feel so happy to be a part of this great day
Where I can be displayed
Everyone starts to gather in the living room to sing in harmony
The Christmas carols that are spoken so heartily
All this joy fills me with happy tears
Hands put together for our prayers
Kids waiting anxiously to open their gifts
Hoping it could be something from their lists
Kids one at a time opening their gifts enjoying their moment
Seeing their happy faces brings a smile to mine
Night falls and I’m afraid my time has run out that is …fine…
The day approaches, head hanging low, knowing what’s coming
My dresses being undone am no longer stunning
I’m afraid it’s time to say goodbye
On my way back to the garage I let out a sad cry
Until next Christmas Day
Where I will be displayed again
