Snowy Day

Woke up kind of late and looked outside
Someone had dusted the whole wide world
With powdered sugar from the sky
We put on our big boots and went out in the snow
And I’m afraid our snowman had no nose
‘Cause we ate all the carrots two days ago
Snowy days, oh, snowy days!
I’ll wear my yellow sweater
‘Cause the weather outside has never been better
Cozy days, oh, these lazy days
We’ll sit beside the fire’s blaze
Won’t let the time just slip away
We’ll make the most of this snowy day
We’ll have a snowball fight and a fox and goose chase
And I won’t count how many times
You “accidentally” hit me in the face
Then we’ll come in from the snow
And drink huge cups of hot cocoa
We’ll sing all of our favorite songs
And you can laugh when I dance along
Snowy days, oh, snowy days!
We’ll read “The Hobbit,” and warm our toes
And roast ourselves while we roast marshmallows
Cozy days, oh, these lazy days
We’ll play some Settlers, you’ll settle my land
Steal the sheep right out of my hand
Take my ships and sail them away, oh
Don’t you love a snowy day?

Christmas Party

You showed up to Christmas with last year’s hat on your head
Did you have a long day or did you just get out of bed
Could you use a meal you look like you need to be fed
So come on in and have some eggnog instead
It’s good to see you, it’s been all year
I see you haven’t lost your cheer
Eggnog sounds great
Did you hear that Emmett went and moved upstate
He’s looking for love but he still hasn’t gone on a date
Yeah that old fool thinks he’s following fate
Where is he now, he must be running late
Everything’s different but also the same
That’s just what it is at the holidays
This eggnog is great

Didn't mean to leave you hanging on
I didn't mean to leave you all alone
I didn't know what to say
I didn't know what to say
Didn't mean to leave you hanging on
I didn't mean to leave you all alone
I didn't know what to say
Didn't know what to say
Merry Christmas baby
Merry Christmas baby
Merry Christmas baby
Merry Christmas baby
Merry Christmas baby
Merry Christmas baby
Merry Christmas

From this valley you say you are going
We will miss your warm home and your smiles
For they say you are taking the sunshine
That has brightened these highlands awhile
You are building a home in the woods
Where your winters are foggy and gray
It’s a wonderful life that you’re making
Still we’re sad that you must go away
Come and join us for tea or for supper
Won't you let us sing you a song
To remember this old Hudson Valley
And the home that it’s been for so long
If you travel this world, crossing oceans
Or retire to your old childhood land
Give your word you’ll return to these mountains
And rest by this river once again
We’ll be spending next Christmas together
It’s a hope that will last us the year
But we’ll soon trade embraces and smiles
And the fond words we’ve been longing to hear

It's snowing at Clinton Street
As the heater hums
The day will become
Evening at Clinton Street
She has some friends at Clinton Street
A few mismatched mugs
Hot tea like a warm hug
Held closely like a guarantee
That everything will be alright
Because life may be tough
And sometimes we lack the stuff
But good friends, in the dark, are a light
But good friends, in the dark, are a light

There is too much to be said about this album. Let it suffice that our Christmas project may not have happened if it weren't for this collection.

I remember the excitement among our group when we heard Josh Garrels released a Christmas album. Well, that original hype did not burn out. After many listens, we still love this Christmas album.
