[Verse 1]
Dear Santa, I’ve seen you by the Christmas trees,
In your red suit and fluffy white hair, you take photos with children and give them candies
Though we’ve never spoken, but here I am writing with my sincere plea.
What I’m asking for won’t fit under the tree,
I don’t know if it’s appropriate for Christmas, please forgive me.
[Chorus]
There’s a thirst in me that I don’t know how to quench, even if I try,
It’s an unfettered dream that soars like an eagle in the open sky.
There’s that desire to search for the meaning of life,
To create a legacy worthwhile, something I can leave behind.
[Verse 2]
Dearest Santa, pain and heartache, you see, are not strangers to me.
I’ve learned to sit and let it wash over me, like the tide of the open sea.
The night wasn’t long enough, even with all the powers that be,
Nothing is potent enough, I realize now, but only I can set me free.
[Chorus]
There’s a thirst in me that I don’t know how to quench, even if I try,
It’s an unfettered dream that soars like an eagle in the open sky.
There’s that desire to search for the meaning of life,
To create a legacy worthwhile, something I can leave behind.
[Verse 3]
Dear Santa, when I wake up tomorrow on Christmas morning, please let it be
That instead of a present neatly wrapped, waiting pretty under the tree,
That there’s an expiration date for my determination, let me be wrong,
Because being alone never feels quite right, even when I am strong.
[Bridge]
Let it be that despite the secret promises I made to myself, things I thought I’d never do,
That I’ll believe again, that there’s a love out there for me, a love that’s true.
Let it be that that small part of me, quietly holding a spark of hope, hasn’t been a fool,
Let that day come soon, before my candle burns through.
[Chorus]
There’s a thirst in me that I don’t know how to quench, even if I try,
It’s an unfettered dream that soars like an eagle in the open sky.
There’s that desire to search for the meaning of life,
To create a legacy worthwhile, something I can leave behind.
[Verse 5]
Dear Santa, I feel that passion deeply in my being,
Let it be through my suffering I learn to help others find their meaning.
I know life is short; there’s a reason we are here, it’s not for material things,
But to find our purpose in the hearts we touch and the joy that love brings.
[Chorus]
There’s a thirst in me that I don’t know how to quench, even if I try,
It’s an unfettered dream that soars like an eagle in the open sky.
There’s that desire to search for the meaning of life,
To create a legacy worthwhile, something I can leave behind.
