about

This song began with a riff on the Tres Mandrakus Guitar. It felt like a yuletide song and I imagined my friends in Chorley who have bought quite a few of my hats and wear them to steam punk events or on special occasions. They have dogs and enjoy all being together in a pub. The first verse came out and then a few months later the whole song took shape.

lyrics

YULETIDE SONG

The crows had left the village square
The snow began to stick
The sparkly brights were hanging bold
The moonlight blanket thick

The breath of love is warm
It melts the cold away
On the day that we are born

The dogs all hog the fire place
Say hello with happy licks
Contented now with wagging tails
They chomp their chewy sticks

The breath of love is warm
It melts the cold away
On the day that we are born

The good friends find their happy hats
And wear them with a chin
They gather round the homely flames
And waggle off their chins

The breath of love is warm
It melts the cold away
On the day that we are born

The magic snow lights hang in space
The moon sinks in the sky
The stars have watched us as we sleep
While crystals fall and lie

The breath of love is warm
It melts the cold away
On the day that we are born

It melts the cold away
It melts the cold away

On the day that we are born
