Pogues - Fairytale of New York


Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share

Christmas Time is Here - from a Charlie Brown Christmas

When a certain gentleman arrived from Rome
She wore the dress, and I stayed home
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in...

- from Anthem, by Leonard Cohen (b 1934)

Sisters - From the movie White Christmas (Rosemary Clooney was one of the "sisters," but I can't remember the other).

-----

From God our heavenly father
A blessed angel came
And unto certain shepherds
Brought tidings of the same
How that in Bethlehem was born
The son of God by name

From

To car
To
Gates ajar

God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen


See the blazing Yule before us.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Strike the harp and join the chorus.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

Underneath the mountain
Right against the forest fence

Good King Wenceslas?  Ok, I cheated and looked it up, I've never heard of it.

My heart stopped beating, I couldn't let it show
You were as unexpected as roses in the snow
Just like that I knew you were the one
Now all that's left is loving you forever

I won't cheat by doing a Google search, kd. Guess this one...

"All I've ever wanted was not to live alone,
Everywhere I go, people say it shows,
They all tell me that it's wrong to live alone..."

I thought everybody would know Good King Wenceslas!   :o   Maybe it's more a British song?

 Carole King  Loving you forever

 Happy new year
 Happy new year
 May we all have a vision now and then
 Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
 Happy new year
 Happy new year
 May we all have our hopes, our will to try
 If we dont we might as well lay down and die
 You and i

its a far better thing i do than i have ever done

Happy New Year - ABBA 
(ok I googled it  ;)  )


Stand up in a clear blue morning until you see what can be
Alone in a cold day dawning, are you still free? Can you be?
When some cold tomorrow finds you, when some sad old dream reminds you
How the endless road unwinds you

Nobody knew this one?  Sorry.

It's Steve Winwood 'While You See a Chance'

OK, what about this one...

Buddy you’re a boy make a big noise
Playin’ in the street gonna be a big man some day
You got mud on yo’ face
You big disgrace
Kickin’ your can all over the place
