lyrics

We're not leaving here tonight,
All tucked in safe and tight
Our fire still has a little bit of life

Windows covered up with snow
You hung some mistletoe
I see that little glimmer in your eyes

This is what I wait all year for
Smiles on every street and sweet songs sing of peace
Seems like the whole world goes on hold
Magic takes over and love fills in the holes
There are lessons to be learned
There are lessons to be learned from Christmas
If we listen

Have we ever felt so happy
Sitting with our family
Singing carols just a bit off key

Someone spiked the apple cider
Cookies caught on fire
I don't think there's anything as sweet

This is what i wait all year for
Smiles on every street and sweet songs sing of peace
Seems like the whole world goes on hold
Magic takes over and love fills in the holes
There are lessons to be learned
There are lessons to be learned from christmas
If we listen

Something warm to drink
Slippers on my feet
I don't think our tree has ever looked better
You're whispering to me
Things i can't repeat
You do something to me in that Rudolph sweater

This is what i wait all year for
Smiles on every street and sweet songs sing of peace
Seems like the whole world goes on hold
Magic takes over and love fills in the holes
There are lessons to be learned
In the messes and the blur, in the blessing and the best we bring at Christmas
There are lessons to be learned from christmas
If we listen

This song rocks. I heard this song back in 2012 (now 2019) and i knew this would be played at my wedding. Cut to 2019 and I played this to my now wife. This song was then played for our first dance. Thank you Liz Longley. You did it!! damo_ebert

Ich werde nie den Moment vergessen, wie ich in Schwerin in einem Media-Markt das Album Warm Strangers bei den Reinhör-Stationen gesehen habe. Scheinbar hatte jamnd anders sich die CD zuvor reingezogen und dort liegen lassen. Das Cover hat mich angesprochen und ich hab die CD sofort in einen der CD-Spieler getan. Ich war hin und weg und knapp bei Kasse, und hab trotzdem die CD sofort gekauft. Vielen Dank, Vienna, für diese wunderschöne Erinnerung. mpfau
