Merry Christmas, world!!!

Hope, Peace and Joy to everyone.

Do you remember me?
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
Well, I'm all grown-up now
Can you still help somehow?
I'm not a child, but my heart still can dream

So here's my lifelong wish
My grown-up Christmas list
Not for myself, but for a world in need

No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
Every man would have a friend
That right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown-up Christmas list

Happy Birthday to me.

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen.

Dancing Queen, feel the beat, from the tambourine.

You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life

See that girl, watch that scene, diggin' the Dancing Queen.

Everyone's a little bit unsatisfied.
Everyone goes 'round a little empty inside.
Take a breath, look around, swallow your pride.
For now...
Nothing lasts, life goes on, full of surprises.
You'll be faced with problems of all shapes and sizes.
You're going to have to make a few compromises...
But only for now, only for now!
For now we're healthy.
For now we're happy, if not overjoyed.
And we'll accept the things we cannot avoid, for now...

Don't stress, relax,

Let life roll off your backs

Except for death and paying taxes,

Everything in life is only for now.

I'm waiting for a new day to rise
Conversations to make sense to me and my mind
I need someone to lift me right off of my feet
And I want it, and I need it, and I'll leave it all behind
And all the changes I've made
And I remember the words, that you'll never say

I believe, I believe, I believe,

All we’’ll be forgiven

There is love in heaven

I am sixteen going on seventeen. I know that I'm naive. Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet and willingly I believe. I am sixteen going on seventeen, innocent as a rose. Bachelor dandies, drinkers of brandies what do I know of those. Totally unprepared am I to face a world of men. Timid and shy and scared am I of things beyond my ken. I need someone older and wiser telling me what to do. You are seventeen going on eighteen, I'll depend on you.

We are young
We are strong
We're not looking for

where we belong
We're not cool
We are free
And we're running with

blood on our knees

We are the dream

No other way to be

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly.
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky.
Make a wish, take a chance,
Make a change, and break away.

Out of the darkness and into the sun.
But I won't forget all the ones that I love.
I'll take a risk, take a chance,
Make a change, and break away.

How do you measure a year?

In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee, in inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife.
In five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes.
How do you measure a year in the life?
How about love?
Measure in love
Seasons of love…

What goes on inside is a mystery no doubt.
Roller coaster ride, I may never work it out
Here's the brand new me, skates around and floats on air.
I'm a sight to see, rainbow colors in my hair.
You have set me free, the one who gets me there
Im fallin’ through the door
Flyin’ cross the floor
When you look at me suddenly it’s clear
You're burnin' up my dreams
Crazy as it seems
I don’t wanna be anywhere but here

Kiss today goodbye, the sweetness and the sorrow. Wish me luck, the same to you. But I can't regret what I did for love, what I did for love. Look my eyes are dry. The gift was ours to borrow. It's as if we always knew. And I won't forget what I did for love, what I did for love. Gone, love is never gone. As we travel on, love's what we'll remember. Kiss today goodbye, and point me t'ward tomorrow. We did what we had to do.

Won't forget, can't regret what I did for love…

The heart may freeze

or it can burn
The pain will ease

if I can learn
There is no future
There is no past
I live this moment

as my last
There's only us
There's only this
Forget regret
Or life is yours to miss

No other road
No other way
No day but today

These are a few of my favourite things...

Hello hurricane, you're not enough
Hello hurricane, you can't silence my love
I've got doors and windows boarded up
All your dead end fury is not enough
You can't silence my love, my love
Every thing I have I count as loss
Everything I have is stripped away
Before I started building I counted up these costs
There's nothing left for you to take away

When you are smiling,

when you are smiling,

the whole world

smiles with you…

Stars fading, but I linger on, dear.
Still craving your kiss,

I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear.
Just saying this: Sweet dreams

till sunbeams find you.
Sweet dreams that leave

all worries behind you.
But in your dreams whatever they be,

dream a little dream of me.
