Just a little taste of the Christmas cake    To make sure that she won't be fed up with it    Her passion for treats must be kept alive    The longing for the next Christmas to arrive       Just a little trip on the merry-go-round    To make sure that she won't get sick of it    Her passion for fun must be kept alive    The longing for the next fun-fair to arrive       You said that absence makes the heart grow fonder    I guess that's why you don't see her any longer       Just a little chapter from the fairy tale    To make sure that she won't get tired of it    Her passion for tales must be kept alive    The longing for the next bedtime to arrive       Just a little love in adolescence    To make sure that she won't get hurt by it    Her passion for love must be kept alive    The longing for the next friend to arrive       You said that absence makes the heart grow fonder    I guess that's why you don't see her any longer       Just a little chat on the telephone    To make sure that she won't get broke by it    The passion for your voice must be kept alive    The longing for the day you'll arrive
