Lead vocals by Dennis DeYoungI remember Christopher
such a man
so brave and tallhe took the baby Jesus
in his arms
across the waterfallpeople cried, "he's holy!
he's a saint not a man!"
all at once it was written
in the book of the landChristopher, Mr. Christopher
why won't they leave you alone?
Christopher, Mr. Christopher
why won't they leave you alone?there was Mary Margaret
a Christian lady
dressed in blackshe believed St. Christopher
helped her find
a way backshe told him all her secrets
and the dreams of her years
so when they took that saint away
all that's left were her tearsMary cried "they're crazy!
the world is changing too fast!"
it was then she discovered
that her faith couldn't lastChristopher, Mr. Christopher
why won't they leave you alone?
Christopher, Mr. Christopher
why won't they leave you alone?Christopher, Mr. Christopher
why won't they leave you alone?
Christopher, Mr. Christopher
why won't they leave you alone?
