lyrics
Dead of night
By moonlight
Heard a sound
What could it be?
Tinkling bells
Casting spells
All look up
What do you see?
Wake up
Wake up
For Christmas day is here
Wake up
And share the love and laughter through the year
Flying high
He passes by
There’s magic in the air
On his sleigh
For Christmas Day
With love enough to share
Wake up
Wake up
For Christmas day is here
Wake up
And share the love and laughter through the year
Krampus comes to
Sound of drums
And dances in the street
If you’re bad he’ll
Cackle glad
And drag you by your feet
Wake up
Wake up
For Christmas day is here
Wake up
And share the love and laughter through the year
We have plenty
Four and twenty
Blackbirds in a pie
But some are homeless,
Cold, alone,
Let’s help the poorer guy
Wake up
Wake up
For Christmas day is here
Wake up
And share the love and laughter through the year
All your love
All your hope
All your dreams
Make them come true
Share the love
Share the hope
Share your dreams
Carry them through
Those who fall
Those who cry
Those who need
Give them your love
You will find
If you try
Love returns
Ev-e-ry time
Krampus preys
On those who stray
And those who cannot see
Guard your wealth
And lose your health
To hate and jealousy
Rich and greedy
Poor and needy
This should never be
Sister, brother
Help each other
Love and light to see
Wake up
Wake up
For Christmas day is here
Wake up
And share the love and laughter through the year
Krampus preys
On those who stray
And those who cannot see
Guard your wealth
And lose your health
To hate and jealousy
Rich and greedy
Poor and needy
This should never be
Sister, brother
Help each other
Love and light to see
Wake up
Wake up
For Christmas day is here
Wake up
And share the love and laughter through the year
Rich and greedy
Poor and needy
This should never be
Sister, brother
Help each other
Love and light to see
Wake up
Wake up
For Christmas day is here
Wake up
And share the love and laughter through the year
By moonlight
Heard a sound
What could it be?
Tinkling bells
Casting spells
All look up
What do you see?
Wake up
Wake up
For Christmas day is here

And share the love and laughter through the year

Forsaken Innocence
by Drifting Sunsupported by 15 fans who also own “Wake Up”
Soothfully a phenomenal prog rock album—an instant classic. What motivates me to say so, is the music’s incredible expressiveness & its wonderfully cinematic song structures. Jargon is a very good fit with this band. It is quite evident that the band’s current lineup have great chemistry together & that they share a common affinity to this vein of music. I look forward to their next creation. Drifting Sun are definitely one of prog rock’s brightest lights. Thank you, DS! 9+/10.
