Post 536: Leave it Up to Santa Claus (3/28/10)

Leave it up to Santa Claus (11/15/09 c, 3/28/10 w)

It’s so hard to find, find the joy of the season

When all I had I believe in
But I can’t afford a gift that is worthy, worthy of you
I really want to, I guess I’ll have to

Leave it up to Santa Claus

To come through and give you what you deserve
You’ve been so great all year
But I don’t have enough to give to you
So I’m going to have to
Leave it up to Santa Claus

Times are rough when the economy is tough

I guess I’m just out of luck
When the only thing, the only thing I can give to you
Is my undying love
Not material possessions
So hear my confession

Leave it up to Santa Claus

To come through and give you what you deserve
You’ve been so great all year
But I don’t have enough to give to you
So I’m going to have to
Leave it up to Santa Claus

My cash is flowing short

Short of what it would take
Take to make you happy and treat you like the princess you are
I can’t afford your bejeweled crown

And all I can give to you
Is a promise, a promise of my love for you
I hope you can love me too
Because I feel I’ve let you down

Leave it up to Santa Claus

To come through and give you what you deserve
You’ve been so great all year
But I don’t have enough to give to you
So I’m going to have to
Leave it up to Santa Claus
