Since Everyone seems to be getting in the mood
just thought I would paste the lyrics of my two favorite Xmas songs, both remind me how Xmas means less about religion and more about catching up with family and friends at this time of year,
Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Let your heart be light
From now on,
our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on,
our troubles will be miles away.
Here were are as in olden days,
happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
gather near to us once more.
Through the years we all will be together
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.
The Christmas Song
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos.
Everybody knows a turkey
and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight.
They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys
and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer
really know how to fly.
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said
many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you.
:-D

just need something to hang them on!! I have to get one holiday behind me before I start on another one...I always decorate the Christmas tree the weekend after Thanksgiving..that way all those decorations are stored and the Christmas ones are dragged out at the same time...There IS a method to my madness...somewhere..
oh really? Scarlett try to decorate your tree now..it's not that late.
I wonder if you guys here feel the same sadness...[img_assist|nid=48103|title=**** ****|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=|height=0]

This was a song sung by Perry Como he used to do a show on TV every Christmas.

The lyrics of White Christmas struck a chord with the soldiers fighting in the Second World War and their families who were waiting for them back home.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten,
and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

A man walks into a pet store..and tells the salesman he wants to buy a parrot as a present for his wife. Salesman says "I have WONDERFUL parrot, sir, his name is Chet...he sings Christmas carols when you put fire under his feet. Watch." Takes bird from cage, perchs him on his finger then lights a match, waves it under bird's feet. Chet starts singing "Jingle Bells, jingle bells, jingle all the wayyyyy.."
Lights another match..again, waves it under Chet's feet..."We wish you a merry Christmas..we wish you a merry Christmas", Chet sings..
Man claps his hands, and says,"I'll take him..he'll be my wife's Christmas present!!"
Christmas day comes around..man takes Chet from cage.."Here Dear..I bought you a parrot that sings...watch!!!
He lights his cigarette lighter and waves it closely under Chet's feet but a bit too close...Chet starts singing.."Chet's nuts roasting on an open flame.."
That's fine.
A lot of us here misses our family, I know that I'm not alone.

Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air
There's a feeling of Christmas
Children laughing
People passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on ev'ry street corner you'll hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
Strings of street lights
Even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle
You'll hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day...

Didn't mean to make you sad :(
I just think that at least if I'm not near to the ones that I love at xmas then at least these songs remind me that we are all thinking of each other, with a smile.
i feel the same way...this song makes me feel really sad whenever i hear it...but i like it a lot ;-P
"Ad astra per aspera" ~ AS
It makes me feel more sad..
I like the song White Christmas
