The match girl dreams of peace on earth
The match girl dreams
Of peace on earth
An open fire
Burning in the hearth
All the poor match girls
Are never ever cold
Because of the kind people
Their matches are all sold
The match girl dreams of peace on earth
The match girl dreams
Of peace on earth
Where all the greed and hatred
Everyone deserts
A thousand candles
Burn upon the tree
And the little match girl knows
That she will be free
The match girl dreams of peace on earth
The match girl dreams
Of peace on earth
An open fire
Burning in the hearth
All the poor match girls
Are never ever cold
Because of the kind people
Their matches are all sold
The match girl dreams of peace on earth
The match girl dreams
Of peace on earth
Where all the greed and hatred
Everyone deserts
A thousand candles
Burn upon the tree
And the little match girl knows
That she will be free
The match girl dreams of peace on earth
