In a toy shop high on a shelf
I sat as days went by
Watching all my friends be bought
As Christmas Eve drew nigh

A damaged Teddy Bear was I
Just waiting to be sold
Though no one came to look at me
As I sat alone and cold

But as tiny tears fell from my eyes
A fairy floated by
And as she waved her pretty wand
She said please don’t cry

Santa Claus has sent me to find
A special Teddy Bear
For a little girl who asked for one
In her bedtime prayer

So on Christmas Eve tied with a bow
Santa laid me by her side
And when she awoke a looked at me
Tears of joy she cried

With her little arms around me
I filled her heart with joy
For I had so much love to give
Though just a broken toy.
