[ Featuring Andreas Haakshorst ]
Hey dear Santa, here's my letter in a way
To tell you all my wishes for this special holiday
I've been dancing through the days with joy and festive cheer
But there are a few things on my mind that I hold so dear
Oh dear Santa, now the drums begin to play
I'm dreaming of a world where kindness leads the way
Where people stop and listen and are not afraid
Where mankind can speak its mind and then remember what was said
As the moonlight softly glimmers and the stars run up above
I'll send my wishes to you with all my heart's pure love
For peace on earth, goodwill to all and blessings far and near
And may this somber melody fill your sleigh with cheer
Hey dear Santa, here's my letter in a way
Hey dear Santa, yes I know the list is long
How about the climate, you know there's something wrong
But I like my foreign travel, all the things along the way
I'd give anything to go there, can I borrow your sleigh
Hey dear Santa, I sure hope you find the time
But if you cannot make it, you know I will be fine
I'll be dancing through my days with joy and festive cheer
And I hope this Samba song we'll sing will reach you by next year
As the moonlight softly glimmers and the stars roll up above
I'll send my wishes to you with all my heart's pure love
For peace on earth, goodwill to all and blessings far and near
And may this Samba melody fill your sleigh with cheer
