Day 2 – Todays song is from a classic band, whose most poplar song was from 1998 and was called “Iris”. This song, with lyrics like “It’s a word or a smile that can change someone’s lift” and “Not the things that you buy, but the love that you bring” seem very fitting for the list this year. #bekind and enjoy “This is Christmas” by the Goo Goo Dolls
Yeah, it’s cold and it’s gray
I’m in love with this day
‘Cause it’s Christmas
Yeah, the light in your eyes
And the smile on your face
Says it’s Christmas
It’s a word or a smile
That can change someone’s life
With some change in your pocket
Just to get through the night
Wish on stars above
For the ones we love
This is Christmas
Drove a thousand miles
Just to see you smile
This is Christmas
Sing with me softly, my dear
‘Cause it’s all I can give you this year
This is Christmas
It gets harder each year
To believe in what’s real
I need Christmas
It’s your love that I miss
Yeah, your heart and your kiss
Make it Christmas
And the gifts that you bring
Always make my heart sing
Not the things that you buy
But the love that you bring
Wish on stars above
For the ones we love
This is Christmas
Drove a thousand miles
Just to see you smile
This is Christmas
Sing with me softly, my dear
‘Cause it’s all I can give you this year
This is Christmas
And it’s late in December
I need to remember
You were there when I needed a friend
So fill up the car
And we’ll chase down the star
That will lead us back home again
Wish on stars above
For the ones we love
This is Christmas
Drove a thousand miles
Just to see you smile
This is Christmas
Hold the feeling in
Feel my heart with cheer
‘Cause it’s Christmas
Sing with me softly, my dear
‘Cause it’s all I can give you this year
This is Christmas
This is Christmas
