An “elfin aria”… the 2024 addition to the Albert Vick Holiday Sparkle playlist. This version has been remixed (and shortened):

SANTA’S WORKSHOP (Can We Find Love)

Tonight most of the elves are sleeping, 

completely exhausted from today.

The workshop had been humming,

as the elves made objects of play.

One elf lays awake, thinking of love.

He’s hoping she feels the same way.

We can find love in Santa’s Workshop.

I know I’m meant to be with you.

Yes, we’ll find love in Santa’s Workshop, 

and much joy for me & you.

Look at me, see how well I can paint!

Dream with me, through the long polar nights!

Look at me, I just know that I can’t

think of joy, without you in my life.

The ice on the trees looks like jewelry.

The white chimney smoke floats all around.

Snowdrifts form tunnels from house to house,

excitement is building in town.

Can we find love in Santa’s Workshop?

Must it be all work and no play?

It’s near the end of December,

surely, surely there must be a way!

We can find love in Santa’s Workshop.

I know I’m meant to be with you.

Yes, we’ll find love in Santa’s Workshop, 

and much joy for me & you!

It’s near the end of December.

Soon Santa will leave in his sleigh.

Just know, I’ll love you forever.

Please love me, surely there must be a way!
