O holy night,
The stars are brightly shining; It is the night of Our dear Savior's birth! Long lay the world In sin and error pining, Till He appeared And the soul felt its worth. A thrill of hope, The weary world rejoices, For yonder breaks A new and glorious morn. Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices! O night divine, O night when Christ was born! O night divine, O night, O night divine! Led by the light of Faith Serenely beaming, With glowing hearts By His cradle we stand. So led by light of a star Sweetly gleaming, Here came the wise men From Orient land. The King of Kings lay thus In lowly manger, In all our trials Born to be our Friend! He knows our need, To our weakness no stranger; Behold your King! Before the lowly bend! Behold your King! your King! Before Him bend. Truly He taught us To love one another; His law is love and His gospel is peace. Chains shall He break For the slave is our brother And in His name All oppression shall cease. Sweet hymns of joy in Grateful chorus raise we, Let all within us Praise His holy name! Christ is the Lord, Oh praise His name forever, His pow'r and glory evermore proclaim His pow'r and glory Evermore proclaim. |

Silent night, holy night!
All is calm, All is bright Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child Holy Infant so Tender and mild, Sleep in heavenly peace, Sleep in heavenly peace. Silent night, holy night! Shepherds quake at the sight! Glories stream from heaven afar; Heavenly hosts sing Al-le-lu-ia! Christ the Saviour is born! Christ the Saviour is born! Silent night, holy night! Wondrous star, lend thy light! With the angels let us sing Alleluia to our King! Christ the Saviour is here, Jesus the Saviour is here! Silent night, Holy night! Son of God, love's pure light Radiant beams from Thy holy face, With the dawn of redeeming grace, Jesus Lord at thy birth; Jesus Lord at thy birth. |

Christmas makes you feel emotional
It may bring parties or thoughts devotional Whatever happens or what may be, Here is what Christmas time means to me. City sidewalk, 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 every 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. City 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. |

What Child is this who, laid to rest On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet, While shepherds watch are keeping? This, this is Christ the King, Whom shepherds guard and angels sing; Haste, haste, to bring Him laud, The Babe, the Son of Mary. Why lies He in such mean estate, Where ox and ass are feeding? Good Christians, fear, for sinners here The silent Word is pleading. Nails, spear shall pierce Him through, The cross be borne for me, for you. Hail, hail the Word made flesh, The Babe, the Son of Mary. So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh, Come peasant, king to own Him; The King of kings salvation brings, Let loving hearts enthrone Him. Raise, raise a song on high, The virgin sings her lullaby. Joy, joy for Christ is born, The Babe, the Son of Mary. |

Sleigh bells ring, are you list'nin?
In the lane, snow is glist'nin' A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight Walkin' in the winter wonderland Gone away is the blue bird Here to stay is a new bird He sings a love song, as we go along Walkin' in the winter wonderland In the meadow we can build a snowman Then pretend that he is Parson Brown He'll say "are you married?" We'll say "no man! But you can do the job when you're in town" Later on we'll conspire, as we dream by the fire To face unafraid, the plans that we've made Walkin' in the winter wonderland Over the ground lies a mantle of white A heaven of diamonds shine down through the night Two hearts are thrillin' In spite of the chill in the weather Love knows no season, love knows no clime Romance can blossom any old time Here in the open We're walkin' and hopin' together Together, together, together Sleigh bells ring, are you list'nin? In the lane, snow is glist'nin' A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight Walkin' in the winter wonderland Gone away is the blue bird Here to stay is a new bird He's singing love song, as we go along Walkin' in the winter wonderland In the meadow we can build a snowman And pretend that he's a circus clown We'll have lots of fun with Mister Snowman Until the other kiddies knock him down When it snows ain't it thrillin' Tho' your nose gets a chillin' We'll frolic and play, the eskimo way Walkin' in the winter wonderland Walkin' in the winter wonderland Winter wonder, winter wonderland Winter winter, wonder wonderland |

Haul out the holly
Put up the tree before my spirit falls again Fill up the stocking I may be rushing things but deck the halls again now For we need a little Christmas right this very minute Candles in the window, carols at the spinet Yes we need a little Christmas right this very minute Hasn't snowed a single flurry, but Santa dear we're in a hurry Climb down the chimney Turn on the brightest string of lights I've ever seen Slice up the fruit cake It's time we've hung some tinsel on the evergreen bough For I've grown a little leaner, grown a little colder Grown a little sadder, grown a little older And I need a little angel sitting on my shoulder Need a little Christmas now For we need a little music, need a little laughter, need a little singing ringing through the rafter and we need a little snappy, happy ever after We need a little Christmas now! |

A certain smile, a certain face
Can lead an unsuspecting heart On a merry chase Afleeting glance can say So many lovely things Suddenly you know why my heart sings You love awhile and when love goes You try to hide the tears inside With a cheerful pose *But in the hush of night Exactly like a bitter sweet refrain Comes that certain smile To haunt your heart again |

When they begin the beguine
It brings back the sound of music so tender It brings back a night of tropical splendor It brings back a memory evergreen I'm with you once more under the stars And down by the shore, an orchestra's playing And even the palms seem to be swaying When they begin the beguine To live it again is past all endeavor Except when that tune clutches my heart And there we are swearing to love forever And promising never, never to part A moments divine what rapture serene To clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted And now when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted I know but too well what they mean So don't let them begin the beguine Let the love that was once a fire Remain an ember Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember When they begin the beguine Oh yes let them begin the beguine Make them play 'Til the stars that were there before Return above you Till you whisper to me Once more darling I love you And we suddenly know what heaven we're in When they begin The beguine |

Chances are, 'cause I wear that silly grin
the moment you come into view; chances are you think that I'm in love with you. Just because my composure sort-of slips the moment that your lips meet mine, chances are you think my heart's your Valentine. In the magic of moonlight, when I sigh "hold me close, dear" chances are you believe the stars that fill the skies are in my eyes. Guess you feel you'll always be the one and only one for me and if you think you could, well, chances are your chances are awfully good! The chances are your chances are awfully good! |

Midnight, not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory, she is smiling alone In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet And the wind begins to moan Memory, all alone in the moonlight I can smile at the old days, I was beautiful then I remember a time I knew what happiness was Let the memory live again Every street lamp seems to beat a fatalistic warning Someone mutters and a street lamp gutters And soon it will be morning Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise I must think of a new life and I mustn't give in When the dawn comes, tonight will be a memory, too And a new day will begin Burnt out ends of smoky days, the stale cold smell of morning A street lamp dies, another night is over Another day is dawning Touch me, it's so easy to leave me All alone with the memory of my days in the sun If you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is Look a new day has begun |

I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree And I feel like I'm clinging to a cloud I can't understand I get misty, just holding your hand Walk my way And a thousand violins begin to play Or it might be the sound of your hello That music I hear I get misty the moment you're near You can say that you're leading me on But it's just what I want you to do Don't you notice how hoplessly I'm lost That's why I'm following you On my own Would I wander through this wonderland alone Never knowing my right foot from my left My hat from my glove I'm too misty and too much in love (repeat after music interlude) Look at me |

You ask how much I need you, must I explain?
I need you, oh my darling, like roses need rain. You ask how long I'll love you; I'll tell you true: Until the twelfth of never, I'll still be loving you. Hold me close, never let me go. Hold me close, melt my heart like April snow. I'll love you till the bluebells forget to bloom; I'll love you till the clover has lost its perfume. I'll love you till the poets run out of rhyme, Until the twelfth of never and that's a long, long time. Hold me close, never let me go. Hold me close, melt my heart like April snow. I'll love you till the bluebells forget to bloom; I'll love you till the clover has lost its perfume. I'll love you till the poets run out of rhyme, Until the twelfth of never and that's a long, long time. Until the twelfth of never and that's a long, long time. |

A ray of hope flickers in the sky
A tiny star lights up way up high All across the land, dawns a brand new morn This comes to pass when a child is born A silent wish sails the seven seas The winds of change whisper in the trees And the walls of doubt crumble, tossed and torn This comes to pass when a child is born A rosy hue settles all around You've got the feel you're on solid ground For a spell or two, no-one seems forlorn This comes to pass when a child is born And all of this happens because the world is waiting, Waiting for one child Black, white, yellow, no-one knows But a child that will grow up and turn tears to laughter, Hate to love, war to peace and everyone to everyone's neighbour And misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten, forever It's all a dream, an illusion now It must come true, sometime soon somehow All across the land, dawns a brand new morn This comes to pass when a child is born |

Chances are, 'cause I wear that silly grin
the moment you come into view; chances are you think that I'm in love with you. Just because my composure sort-of slips the moment that your lips meet mine, chances are you think my heart's your Valentine. In the magic of moonlight, when I sigh "hold me close, dear" chances are you believe the stars that fill the skies are in my eyes. Guess you feel you'll always be the one and only one for me and if you think you could, well, chances are your chances are awfully good! The chances are your chances are awfully good! |

Sometimes, lonely nights turn into sunny days
I never thought I'd feel this way I never knew that you and I were meant to be in love Oh, darling, you've always been around to see me through How was I to know you'd make my dreams come true Time and time again before, always on our own, but now we're friends in love Hoping that we'll always still be friends in love It's dawn and we're together Darling, now we got forever and day Don't you go away Remember everytime you cried, you came to me Much to my surprise, I found someone to see Even nights of loneliness, you were always there for me We're friends in love Hoping that we'll always still be friends in love It's dawn and we're together Darling, now we got forever and day Don't you go away You turned around, looked my way I can't say that it hasn't crossed my mind I've loved you all along Ah now we're leavin' yesterday behind, we'll never be alone We're friends in love Hoping that we'll always still be friends in love It's dawn and we're together Darling, now we got forever and day Don't you go away We're friends in love Hoping that we'll always still be friends in love It's dawn and we're together Darling, now we got forever and day Don't you go away |

The time is right, you hold me tight
And love's got me high Please tell me yes and don't say no Honey, not tonight I need to have you next to me In more ways than one And I refuse to leave 'Til I see the morning sun Creep through your window pane Because love won't let me wait The time is right to turn down the lights And take my hand We'll take a flight and spend the night In Wonderland Now move a little close to me You owe it to yourself And I will selfishly take a little for myself And it's because of you That love won't let me wait I need your love so desperately And only you can set me free When I make love to you We'll explode in ecstasy And I won't take the blame 'Coz love won't let me wait I need your love so desperately And only you can set me free When I make love to you (Love to you) We'll explode in ecstasy And I won't take the blame (And I won't let you take the blame) 'Coz love won't let me wait Come spend this night in Wonderland (I want to spend it in Wonderland) Love won't let me wait I need to have you next to me (I want you close to me) 'Coz love won't let me wait Come spend this night in Wonderland (I want to spend it in Wonderland) 'Coz love won't let me wait |

Touch by touch
You are my all time lover Skin to skin Come on down my cover. When I feel the time is right And you're staying by my side And the love you give to me Makes my heartbeat When my fantasies fly away But my feeling makes my stay I see the fire in your eyes It makes my heart beat * Do it just do it night and day You are my all time lover Do it just do it in a way Like there is no other When my heart is full of love It makes me a trembling dove Love is games that we play Now we make when our love is clear and bright It's our way to see the light There is fire in our heart night and day * Repeat |

When Sunny gets blue,
Her eyes get gray and cloudy, Then the rain begins to fall. Pitter patter, pitter patter, Love is gone, so what can matter? No sweet lover man comes to call. When Sunny gets blue, She breathes a sigh of sadness, Like the wind that stirs the trees. Wind that sets the leaves to swayin', like some violins are playin' Weird and haunting melodies. People used to love to hear her laugh, see her smile. That's how she got her name. Since that sad affair, she's lost her smile, changed her style. Somehow she's not the same. But memories will fade, And pretty dreams will rise up, Where her other dreams fell through. Hurry new love, hurry here, To kiss away each lonely tear, And hold her near when Sunny gets blue. Hurry new love, hurry here, To kiss away each lonely tear, And hold her near when Sunny gets blue. ==Credits== * Composer: Marvin Fisher * Lyricist: Jack Segal |

When the lovin' goes out of the lovin'
And there isn't a thing you can do But reminisce of yesterdays Second guess her changin' ways And fill your time with people just like you When the lovin's gone out of the lovin' And there isn't a thing you can say You bite your tongue and wonder why And then you watch your life flash by Hopin' things will turn around your way There isn't a lovin' thing I can say There isn't a lovin' thing I can do There isn't a lovin' way I can ever reach you How can I walk away and feel free When lovin' you means my whole life to me? There isn't a lovin' way I can ever leave you and be free When the lovin' goes out of the lovin' And there's no easy way to pretend That anythin' could ever be As good a thing as you and me It's hard to understand this is the end There isn't a lovin' thing I can say There isn't a lovin' thing I can do There isn't a lovin' way I can ever reach you How could I walk away and feel free When lovin' you means my whole life to me? There isn't a lovin' way I can ever leave you There isn't a lovin' thing I can say There isn't a lovin' thing I can do There isn't a lovin' way I can ever reach you How can I walk away and feel free When lovin' you means my whole life to me? There isn't a lovin' way I could ever leave you and feel free When the lovin' goes out of the lovin' |

Many a tear has to fall
But it's all in the game All in the wonderful game That we know as love You had words with him And your future's looking dim But these things your heart can rise above Once in a while he won't call But it's all in the game Soon he'll be there by your side With a small bouquet And he'll kiss your lips And caress your fingertips And your heart will fly away You had words with him And your future's looking dim But these things your heart can rise above Once in a while he won't call But it's all in the game Soon he'll be there by your side With a small bouquet And he'll kiss your lips And caress your fingertips And your heart will fly away |

When you just give love and never get love
You'd better let love depart I know it's so and yet I know I can't get you out of my heart You made me leave my happy home You took my love and now you've gone Since I fell for you Oh, love brings such misery and pain I know I'll never be the same Since I fell for you Well, it's too bad and it's too sad But I'm in love with you First you love me then you snub me But what can I do? I'm still in love with you I guess I'll never see the light I get the blues most every night Since I fell for you, since I fell for you |

Why does the sun go on shining Why does the sea rush to shore Don't they know it's the end of the world Cause you don't love me anymore Why do the birds go on singing Why do the stars glow above Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when I lost your love I wake up in the morning and I wonder Why everything's the same as it was I can't understand No I can't understand How life goes on the way it does Why does my heart go on beating Why do these eyes of mine cry Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when you said good-bye |

Hold me each evening by your side Tell me you'll love me for a million years Then if it don't work out Then if it don't work out Then you can tell me goodbye Sweeten my coffee with a morning kiss Soften my dreams with your sighs Tell me you'll love me for a million years Then if it don't work out Then if it don't work out Then you can tell me goodbye If you must go, oh no, I won't grieve If you wait a lifetime before you leave Then if you must go Mmm, I won't tell you no Just so that we can say we tried Tell me you'll love me for a million years Then if it don't work out Then if it don't work out Then you can tell me goodbye |

It's not for me to say, you love me
It's not for me to say, you'll always care Oh.. but here for the moment I can hold you fast And press your lips to mine And dream that love will last As far as I can see, This is heaven And speaking just for me, It's ours to share Perhaps the glow of love will grow With every passing day Or we may never meet again But then it's not for me to say (Break) And speaking just for me It's ours to share Perhaps the glow of love will grow With every passing day Or we may never meet again But then it's not for me to say |

It's a marshmallow world
In the winter When the snow Comes to cover the ground It's the time for play It's a whipped cream day I wait for it all year 'round Those are marshmallow clouds Being friendly In the arms Of the evergreen trees And the sun is red Like a pumpkin head It's shining So your nose won't freeze The world is your snowball See how it grows That's how it goes Whenever it snows The world is your snowball Just for a song Get out and roll it along It's a yum-yummy world Made for sweethearts Take a walk With your favorite girl It's a sugar date What if spring is late In winter It's a marshmallow world The world is your snowball See how it grows That's how it goes Whenever it snows The world is your snowball Just for a song Get out and roll it along It's a yum-yummy world Made for sweethearts Take a walk With your favorite girl It's a sugar date What if spring is late In winter It's a marshmallow world In winter It's a marshmallow world In winter It's a marshmallow world |

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 we 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. |

Oh, the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful, And since we've no place to go, Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. It doesn't show signs of stopping, And I brought some corn for popping; The lights are turned way down low, Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. When we finally say good night, How I'll hate going out in the storm; But if you really hold me tight, All the way home I'll be warm. The fire is slowly dying, And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing, But as long as you love me so. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. |

This lyrics are like performed by natalie cole Missed the saturday dance Heard they crowded the floor Couldn't bear it without you Don't get around much anymore Thought I'd visit the club Got as far as the door They'd have asked me about you Don't get around much anymore Darling, I guess my mind's more at ease But nevertheless, why stir up memories Been invited on dates Might have gone but what for Awfully different without you Don't get around much anymore |
