(a song)

I SAW MOMMY MISSING SANTA CLAUS

I saw Mommy missing Santa Claus
As we shopped the stores on Xmas. Eve;
Oh, how she looked so bad
Because she was too sad
That we could not afford a Christmas tree.

Then, I heard Mommy cry herself to sleep
Underneath the mistletoe last night;
She thought we couldn't hear
As she shed a silent tear
But I saw her when she turned off the light.

Oh, I heard Mommy missing Santa Claus
As she prayed aloud on Christmas night;
Oh, how we wished we could
Bring him back so that he would
Keep her smiling so pretty and so bright.

'Cuz I knew Daddy was away at war
And he told me that if I was real good;
That Santa would still come
And bring me a toy gun
And this year Santa somehow understood.

So Santa, please stop by our lonely house
Make her laugh and be merry again;
And give Daddy a big kiss
And tell him that I miss
Mommy kissing Santa Claus and him!
