A Song That I Wish I Could Play - Day 27

This was a hard one, since I was waffling between songs I'd like to be able to play on the piano, and songs I'd like to play AND sing at the same time. :)

LAAAAAAAAAAAALAAAAAAAAAAALAAAAAAAAAA!!!

I decided I wanted to post a song I wish I could play and sing to. And since it's only two months until Christmas, I'm posting this very lovely song by Hayley Westenra.



CHRISTMAS MORNING
HAYLEY WESTENRA

Coloured lights upon the tree
Rocking horse and snow fairy.

Gathered 'round the fire at night
Carols sung by candlelight.

Watch the snowflakes touch the ground
Falling softly on the town

Frosted windows in the morn
Woolly jumpers newly worn.

Friends and Family pass around
Presents brought from out of town.
Listen to the joyful sound of morning.

Trinkets hung upon the tree
Candy canes so sugary.
Waiting for the house to wake at dawning.

Tinsel hung from wall to wall
Mistletoe upon the door.

Mugs of cocoa, steaming hot.
Eggnog ladled from the pot.

Friends and Family pass around
Presents brought from out of town.

Listen to the joyful sounds
Of morning.

Trinkets hung upon the tree.
Candy canes so sugary.

Waiting for the house to wake
At dawning.

That's all I've got. Until next time, God bless.

Merry Christmas. ;)

  1. I have a piano but I stopped taking lesson my sophomore year in high school and I don't remember much. I can still play songs I learned but I have trouble reading music now. Weird, right?

    1. I know when I go back to playing piano, I have to study the notes longer than I used to. Practice makes perfect, though. :)

  2. I need to listen to her music more. I always forget about her though. She has such pretty songs.

    Maddock coming back after I killed him had little to do with trust, actually. It was just him wanting to be adored by adoring fans and I was his only means to that, so...also, I had to let him come back. Matter of life and death and all that. It was a mutual thing that neither of us are still very fond of.

    I am once again in awe of your Jsh Groban stalking skills. Those three songs you sent were so pretty! I never get tried of his voice.

    1. Aren't those gorgeous? I absolutely LOVE the one he sings with Placido Domingo!

      Hopefully during the course of your writing, you and Maddock will forgive each other.

      Hayley Westenra is one of my favourite girl singers. Her Christmas CD is particularly fine.

See my comment box? Want to know a secret?

*whispers* It's actually a TARDIS comment box! If you write long enough, you'll see... it's bigger on the inside!

Isn't that cool?

Now that you know that, aren't you going to throw a comment in there? You KNOW you want to. :)
