It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas James Pierpont. publ.1857 It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Ev'rywhere you go; Take a look in the five-and-ten, glistening once again With candy canes and silver lanes aglow. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, Toys in ev'ry store, But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be On your own front door. A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots Is the wish of Barney and Ben; Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk Is the hope of Janice and Jen; And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Ev'rywhere you go; There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well, The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas; Soon the bells will start, And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing Right within your heart. and Joy To The World Joy to the world! The Lord is come: Let earth receive her King. Let ev'ry heart prepare Him room, And heaven and nature sing, And heaven and nature sing, And heaven and heaven and nature sing. He rules the world with truth and grace, And makes the nations prove The glories of His righteousness And wonders of His love, And wonders of His love, And wonders, wonders of His love. HAPPY HOLIDAYS SOS!!

I was going to post the lyrics to a song, then when I went to look it up, I realised it wasn't actually about what I thought it was about So I am refraining!!! So instead I will bring you one of my fave songs from 2006: Starlight, by Muse Far away The ship is taking me far away Far away from the memories Of the people who care if I live or die Starlight I will be chasing a starlight Until the end of my life I don't know if it's worth it anymore And hold you in my arms I just wanted to hold You in my arms My life You electrify my life Let's conspire to re-ignite All the souls that would die just to feel alive But I'll never let you go If you promise not to fade away Never fade away Our hopes and expectations Black holes and revelations Our hopes and expectations Black holes and revelations Hold you in my arms I just wanted to hold You in my arms Far away The ship is taking me far away Far away from the memories Of the people who care if I live or die And I'll never let you go If you promise not to fade away Never fade away Our hopes and expectations Black holes and revelations Yeah Our hopes and expectations Black holes and revelations Hold you in my arms I just wanted to hold You in my arms I just wanted to hold ***************************************************************** There's been entirely too much externalising of emotion lately"...(Madeline) "Don't disappoint me"...(Michael) "Can I go back to bed now"....(Birkoff) "Profanity is the final resort of the inarticulate"

This is For Blue Skies by Strays Don't Sleep: It's been a long year Since we last spoke How's your halo? Just between you and I You and me and the satellites I never believed you I only wanted to Before all of this What did I miss? Do you ever get homesick? I can't get used to it I can't get used to it I'll never get used to it I'll never get used to it I'm under that night I'm under those same stars We're in a red car You asleep at my side Going in and out of the headlights Could I have saved you? Would that've betrayed you? I wanna burn this film You alone with those pills What you couldn't do I will I forgive you I'll forgive you I'll forgive you I forgive you For blue, blue skies For blue, blue skies For blue, blue skies For blue, blue skies I'll forgive you (I think that is so pretty) And another beautiful and sad song... Drive You Home by Garbage It's funny how Even now You still support me after all of the things that I've done You're so good to me Waiting patiently And isn't it sad that you still have to ask if I care? I never said I was perfect But I can take you away Walk on shells tonight Can't do right tonight And you can't say a word Cause I leap down your throat So uptight am I I never said I was perfect But I can drive you home I got down on myself Working too hard Driving myself to death Trying to beat out the faults in my head What a mess I've made Sure we all make mistakes But they see me so large that they think I'm immune to the pain Walk on shells tonight Can't do right tonight And you can't say a word Cause I leap down your throat So uptight am I I'm praying for a miracle But I won't hold my breath I never said I was perfect But can you take me home And what the hell - one more (short one this) Ashes by Embrace I've waited, and given the chance again, I'd do it all the same, but either way I'm always outplayed, up on your down days I left it the right way, to start again Now watch me rise up and leave all the ashes you made out of me When you said that we were wrong, life goes on, just look how long I've agreed Now watch me rise up and leave all the ashes you made out of me When you said that we were wrong, life goes on, just look how long I've agreed Out of place, like a gem on a coalface Lost on the right way, it's all the same 'Cause I've had my hopes raised, riding the wrong waves Scared when you feel safe to start again Now watch me rise up and leave all the ashes you made out of me When you said that we were wrong, life goes on, look how wrong I could be Now watch me rise up and leave all the ashes you made out of me When you said that we were wrong, life goes on, you blew me away I sink like a stone, I lost my control ***************************************************************** There's been entirely too much externalising of emotion lately"...(Madeline) "Don't disappoint me"...(Michael) "Can I go back to bed now"....(Birkoff) "Profanity is the final resort of the inarticulate"

How many people have had a friendship that could fit into this song? Anyway - read through the lyrics - they are really beautiful. Unfortunately, I actually needed them to get what he was singing!! (and now I am totally addicted to this song, due to beautiful description of friendship...) *How To Save A Life* by The Fray Step one you say we need to talk He walks you say sit down it's just a talk He smiles politely back at you You stare politely right on through Some sort of window to your right As he goes left and you stay right Between the lines of fear and blame And you begin to wonder why you came Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend Somewhere along in the bitterness And I would have stayed up with you all night Had I known how to save a life Let him know that you know best Cause after all you do know best Try to slip past his defense Without granting innocence Lay down a list of what is wrong The things you've told him all along And pray to God he hears you And pray to God he hears you Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend Somewhere along in the bitterness And I would have stayed up with you all night Had I known how to save a life As he begins to raise his voice You lower yours and grant him one last choice Drive until you lose the road Or break with the ones you've followed He will do one of two things He will admit to everything Or he'll say he's just not the same And you'll begin to wonder why you came Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend Somewhere along in the bitterness And I would have stayed up with you all night Had I known how to save a life How to save a life How to save a life ***************************************************************** There's been entirely too much externalising of emotion lately"...(Madeline) "Don't disappoint me"...(Michael) "Can I go back to bed now"....(Birkoff) "Profanity is the final resort of the inarticulate"

This is Everlong... Hello, I've waited here for you, everlong Tonight, I throw myself into and out of the red, out of her head she sang Come down and waste away with me, down with me Slow how, you wanted it to be, I'm over my head, out of her head she sang And I wonder when I sing along with you if everything could ever feel this real forever If anything could ever be this good again The only thing I'll ever ask of you You've got to promise not to stop when I say when she sang Breathe out, so I can breathe you in, hold you in And now, I know you've always been out of your head, out of my head I sang And I wonder when I sing along with you if everything could ever feel this real forever If anything could ever be this good again The only thing I'll ever ask of you You've got to promise not to stop when I say when she sang [Spoken] Sometimes in life we wander aimlessly, Searching for a purpose, searching for ourselves. And yet, sometimes in life, we are so oblivious to the obvious Because everything is right in front of us And we're missing the point of living We're missing the point of living And I wonder if everything could ever feel this real forever If anything could ever be this good again The only thing I'll ever ask of you You've got to promise not to stop when I say when

Since you've been gone the offers have been everywhere I've got a million guys just lining up for me I've turned a corner, boy, my life is ecstasy Well, I've been in heaven since I walked away I never thought that I could feel as great as I do today 'Cause you were nothing but a waste of space And life is wonderful now that I'm over you
