Night
before Christmas
My Raena is near
She thinks I
don't notice
Those big floppy
ears
Holding her
stocking
Just waiting for
me
To put up on
mantle
I'm teasing you
see
Pretending she's
not there
I hear when she
groans
I think I should
stop this
She feels so
alone

Just one more
second
Then I'll turn
around
I'll say come on
over
She'll run duty
bound
She's always so
perfect
The best of my
friends
Heart that's so
faithful
Her love never
ends
On Christmas her
stocking
All filled with
great cheer
Her tail will be
wagging
Cause Santa was
here.
