Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is a legendary reindeer, created by Robert Lewis May, usually depicted as a young fawn who barely has antlers, with a glowing red nose, popularly known as "Santa's ninth reindeer." When depicted, he is the lead reindeer pulling Santa's sleigh on Christmas Eve. The luminosity of his nose is so great that it illuminates the team's path through inclement winter weather.
Rudolph first appeared in a 1939 booklet written by Robert L. May and published by Montgomery Ward, the department store.
The story is owned by The Rudolph Company, LP and has been adapted in numerous forms including a popular song, the iconic television special and sequels, and a feature film and sequel. Character Arts, LLC manages the licensing for the Rudolph Company, LP. In many countries, Rudolph has become a figure of Christmas folklore. 2014 marked the 75th anniversary of the character and the 50th anniversary of the television special. A series of postage stamps featuring Rudolph was issued by the United States Postal Service on November 6, 2014.
May's brother-in-law, Johnny Marks, adapted the story of Rudolph into a song. Gene Autry's recording of the song hit No. 1 on the Billboard pop singles chart the week of Christmas 1949. Autry's recording sold 2.5 million copies the first year, eventually selling a total of 25 million, and it remained the second best-selling record of all time until the 1980s.
Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
had a very shiny nose
and if you ever saw it
you would even say it glows
all of the other reindeer
used to laugh and call him names
they never let poor Rudolph
join in any reindeer games
then one foggy Christmas eve
Santa came to say:
"Rudolph with your nose so bright
won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"
then how the reindeer loved him
as they shouted out with glee (yippee)
"Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
you'll go down in history."

There’s something in your eyes
That’s far too revealing
Why must it be like this?
A love without feeling

There’s something wrong with you I know
I see it in your eyes
Believe me when I say
It’s gonna be okay

I told you from the start
I won’t be demanding
(I won’t be demanding)
If you have a change of heart
I’ll be understanding
(I’ll be understanding)

When love becomes a broken heart
And dreams begin to die
Believe me when I say
We’ll work it out some way

I’ll never try to hold you back
I wouldn’t try controlling you
If it’s what you want, it’s what I want
I want what’s best for you

And if there’s something else that you’re looking for
I’ll be the first to help you try
Believe me when I say
It’s hard to say, goodbye

We’ve lost that loving touch
We use to feel so much
I try to hide, the truth that’s in my eyes
(A love without feeling)

But when I feel, we’re not in love
I know I’m losing you
Believe me when I say
We’ll work it out some way

I’ll never try to hold you back
I wouldn’t try controlling you
If it’s what you want, it’s what I want
I want what’s best for you

And if there’s something else that you’re looking for
I’ll be the first to help you try
Believe me when I say
It’s hard to say, goodbye

Don’t say goodbye
If it’s what you want, it’s what I want
I want what’s best for you

I’ll never try to hold you back
I wouldn’t try controlling you
If it’s what you want, it’s what I want
I want what’s best for you

And if there’s something else that you’re looking for
I’ll be the first to help you try
Believe me when I say
It’s hard to say goodbye

I’ll never try to hold you back
I wouldn’t try controlling you
If it’s what you want, it’s what I want
I want what’s best for you

And if there’s something else that you’re looking for
I’ll be the first to help you try
Believe me when I say

It’s hard to say goodbye.

She's a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, who's crazy 'bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too

And it's a long day livin' in Reseda
There's a freeway runnin' through the yard
And I'm a bad boy, cause I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart

Now I'm free
Free fallin'
Yeah, I'm free
Free fallin'

Now all the vampires walkin' through the valley
Move west down Ventura boulevard
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
And the good girls are home with broken hearts

Now I'm free
I'm free fallin'
Yeah, I'm free
Free fallin'

Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm
Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now

I wanna glide down over Mulholland
I wanna write her name in the sky
I'm gonna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for awhile

Now I'm free (Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm)
Free fallin' (Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm)
Yeah, I'm free (Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm)
Free fallin' (Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm)

(Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm)
Now I'm free
Free fallin'
Oh (Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm)
Free fallin' (Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm)
Now I'm free (Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm)
Oh, free fallin' (Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm)
(Free fallin', now I'm free fallin', now I'm) Free fallin'.

Eu sei
Que a vida tem pressa
Que tudo aconteça
Sem que a gente peça
Eu sei

Eu sei
Que o tempo não pára
O tempo é coisa rara
E a gente só repara
Quando ele já passou

Não sei se andei depressa demais
Mas sei, que algum sorriso eu perdi
Vou pedir ao tempo que me dê mais tempo
Para olhar para ti
De agora em diante, não serei distante
Eu vou estar aqui

Cantei
Cantei a saudade
Da minha cidade
E até com vaidade
Cantei
Andei pelo mundo fora
E não via a hora
De voltar p'ra ti

Não sei se andei depressa demais
Mas sei, que algum sorriso eu perdi
Vou pedir ao tempo que me dê mais tempo
Para olhar para ti
De agora em diante, não serei distante
Eu vou estar aqui

Não sei se andei depressa demais
Mas sei, que algum sorriso eu perdi
Vou pedir ao tempo que me dê mais tempo
Para olhar para ti
De agora em diante, não serei distante

Eu vou estar aqui.
