I Know You’re Real St. Nicholas

I know you're real, Saint Nicholas

I know the tales are true

You thought I was sleeping

But I was watching you

I know you're real, Saint Nicholas

I saw your reindeer too

All the stars were shining

I was watching you

Quietly with care

You placed a teddy bear

Underneath the tree

Just for little me

I know you weren't a dream

But no one will believe

All the things I've seen

When I should have been counting sheep

I know you're real, Saint Nicholas

I've seen your eyes of blue

You thought I was dreaming

But I was watching you

I know you're real, Saint Nicholas

I heard your jolly laugh too

While the snow was falling

I was watching you

I heard your nimble feet

As soft as my heartbeat

Just beside my bed

As you patted my little head

I know you weren't a dream

But no one will believe

All the things I've seen

When I should have been counting sheep

I know you're real, Saint Nicholas

I stayed up the whole night through

You thought I was sleeping

But I was watching you

I know you're real, Saint Nicholas

I know you're real, Saint Nicholas
