Suffering all around us Hear the children cry See the women torn with sorrow Count the young men who have died
When there’s no one left to turn to When the people do not care I know that there is someone Who will always be near
Empty words that flow like water In the never-ending time Tell us of the better future While dispelling try to hide
People asking many questions But here answers do they find Giving simple explanations And a little piece of mind
When there’s no one left to turn to When the people do not care I know that there is someone Who will always be near (There’s an Elf in my pocket)
Who will always be near (There’s an Elf in my pocket) When there’s no one left to turn to (There’s an Elf in my pocket) Who will always be near Who will always be near
Is a single man important? Will you listen when he speaks Or attack him as an outcast Who's never hit to meet
When there’s no one left to listen My Elf will still be here Yes, the Elf within my pocket He will always be near (There’s an Elf in my pocket)
He will always be near (There’s an Elf in my pocket) When there’s no one left to listen (There’s an Elf in my pocket) He will always be near He will always be near
