about

This song was written in just over two weeks, on two continents. The song was written for a facebook group charity Christmas/Holiday compilation album.

Mark, who lives in the US, had written this piece of music that had a nostalgic Christmas feel to it. He sent the music over to Avanti, who lives in the UK, where she put lyrics and a vocal melody over the music. For about a week or so they would send melody ideas back and forth until they had the part worked out and they were happy with it. At that point, Avanti recorded her final vocal tracks at her place and then sent them to Mark where he then put them into the music session and did the final mix. The whole thing was recorded in two small bedrooms separated by the Atlantic Ocean.

lyrics

The sun goes down at a quarter past four
The moment I step out into the cold
The streetlights turn on and I feel okay again
Walking down market street
As the pavement reflects the lights of the season

And as I watch the final dregs of daylight
Melt away into a blue night sky
I turn around to see the Christmas lights glisten
Talk to me, and I swear I’ll listen

Sing to me under a canopy of stars
Give me something I can hold on to
And as the snow falls, I’ll hold on to you

I’m feeling like a kid now
Stepping to the beat of your heart
I’m dancing to the memories

Take me home tonight, this Christmas we’re okay
The lights will shine, I’ll hold your hand
And talk to you in a language only we understand

This is something we can hold on to
And as the snow falls
And as the snow falls
And as the snow falls, I’ll hold on to you
