Christmas Song


Summer lyric

Summer’s Gone 
(Beach Boys from album “That’s why God made the radio”)

Summer's gone
Summer's gone away
Gone away
With yesterday

Old friends have gone
They've gone their separate ways
Our dreams hold on
For those who still have more to say

Summer's gone
Gone like yesterday
The nights grow cold
It's time to go
I'm thinking maybe I'll just stay

Another summer gone

Summer's gone
It's finally sinking in
One day begins
Another ends
I live them all and back again

Summer's gone
I'm gonna sit and watch the waves
We laugh, we cry
We live then die
And dream about our yesterday

Christmas lyric parody

Christmas comes
Comes on snow laid way
All the way
With time to pray

Family folks have come
From wherever they stay
My joy fulsome
Reaches great height on festive day

Christmas comes
Under the sky grey
Frozen winds blow
Carol to hum
Dance round fir tree if I may

Another Christmas comes

Christmas comes
I sense fully within
My mind is keen
Feels delight
Live the time again and again

Christmas comes
I’ll watch the snow-flakes dance
We sing, we sigh
Time passes us by
Joy becomes memory to stray
