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
While 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 shoulda been counting sheep
I know you’re real Saint Nicholas
I saw 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 heart beat
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 shoulda 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
