Van morrison glad tidings lyrics

And they'll lay you down low in the easy 

 And the lips that you kiss will say Christmas. 

 And the miles that you traveled the distance 

 So believe no lies, dry your eyes and realize 

 That surprise 

 La, la, la, la la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la... 

 And the businessmen will shake hands and talk in numbers 

 And the princess will wake up from her slumber 

 Then all the knights will step forth with their arm bands 

 And ev'ry stranger you meet in the street will make demands 

 So believe no lies, then dry your eyes and realize 

 That surprise 

 La, la, la... 

  

 Bridge: 

 And we'll send you glad tidings from New York 

 Open up your eyes sa you may see 

 Ask you not to read between the lines 

 Hope that you will come in right on time 

 And they'll talk to you while you're in trances 

 And you'll visualize not taking any chances 

 But meet them halfway with love, peace and persuasion 

 And expect them to rise for the occasion 

 Don't it gratify when you see it materialize 

 Right in front of your eyes 

 That surprise 

  

 And they'll lay you down low and easy
