He’s gone 2000 miles It’s very far The snow is falling down Gets colder day by day I miss you The children will sing He’ll be back at christmas time In these frozen and silent nights Sometimes in a dream - you appear Outside under the purple sky Diamonds in the snow - sparkle Our hearts were singing It felt like christmastime 2000 Miles Is very far through the snow I’ll think of you Wherever you go He’s gone 2000 miles It’s very far The snow is falling down Gets colder day by day I miss you I can hear people singing It must be christmastime I hear people singing It must be christmastime
