Wake Revere
Wake Revere by the fire on Christmas Eve, in a dark knit sweater with three knitted reindeer.

The new Christmas single

Two I
Believe In

She looked up and asked, “Is Santa real?” This is his answer.

A Christmas song about believing in what you can't see. Made to be played by the fire, with the whole family listening.

Clean lyrics. Safe for every age.

Watch

Reindeer see UV light

It's true. Reindeer can see ultraviolet light. People can't.

Their eyes change color

In the Arctic, the back of a reindeer's eye turns from gold in summer to deep blue in winter. It helps them see through months of darkness.

Nick was real

Saint Nicholas was a bishop who lived about 1,700 years ago. He was known for giving gifts in secret.

The lyrics

Verse 1

Christmas Eve, the fire's burnin' low
Little boots by the door still drippin' snow
She tugs on my sleeve with that look in her eyes
Says, “Is Santa real?” And I don't tell lies

Pre-chorus

I said, “Honey, you can't see a radio wave
You can't see the love that your mama gave
But turn on a song and it fills up the room
Some things are real before you see 'em, too”

Chorus

There are two I believe in
One holds the stars, one's out there chasin' 'em
You won't see 'em with your eyes, but you'll know where they've been
By the good they leave behind
The two I believe in

Verse 2

I said, “Did you know his reindeer see a light we can't see?
A glow in the dark that's hid from you and me
Ultraviolet, shinin' bright as day
Now I figure that's how they find their way”

Pre-chorus

You can't see the wind, but you watch the trees bend
You can't see a promise, but you feel it in a friend
Every gift in the mornin', every candle in the night
Is proof of somethin' we can't see with our sight

Chorus

There are two I believe in
One holds the stars, one's out there chasin' 'em
You won't see 'em with your eyes, but you'll know where they've been
By the good they leave behind
The two I believe in

Bridge

Way back when, there was a man named Nick
A bishop with a big heart and a quiet little trick
He'd leave gifts in the night and never sign his name
Givin' in secret for the One who came
So here's the code I cracked tonight:
Santa's been God's helper, hidin' in plain sight

Final chorus

There are two I believe in
One holds the stars, one's out there chasin' 'em
You won't see 'em with your eyes, but you'll know where they've been
Christmas is the fuel to keep happiness goin'
Oh, the two I believe in

Outro

She's asleep by the fire, and I'm still believin'

Wake. Revere.
