VALERIE (LITTLE MATCH GIRL):
By the light I see something beautiful
There’s a fireglow and it brightens over me
I reach out my hand, I can feel the heat
Getting closer now, I am stretching out my feet

And the ice melts away
I can feel the warm embrace of firelight
Oh, can it be?
Or is it too good to be true...

Maybe this time I believe I’ll make it last
Maybe this time will be different from the past
Can I trust myself, can I make it stay?
If I take a breath, will it fade away?
Maybe this time I can reach and hold on fast

By the light I see something beautiful
All the walls have turned into crystal shimmering
I can see right through, there’s a table set
For a New Year’s banquet that no one’s eaten yet

’Cause it’s there just for me
It’s a feast like I have never seen before
Oh, can it be?
Or is it too good to be true...

Maybe this time I believe I’ll make it last
Maybe this time will be different from the past
If I shut my eyes, if I show no fear
If I touch it, will it disappear?
Maybe this time I can reach and hold on fast

Striking one, striking two
I don’t know what else to do
Just one more—a Christmas tree!
All aglow with bright lights everywhere
So tall I can’t believe
How it sparkles just like diamonds glistening
Oh, can it be?
Or is it too good to be true...

Maybe this time I believe I’ll make it last
Maybe this time will be different from the past
Can I trust myself, can I make it stay?
If I take a breath, will it fade away?
Maybe this time I can reach and hold on fast
