about
We're at it once again...welcome to our 2020 musical Christmas card!
Well, it goes without saying that this has been a different kind of year. It didn't feel right that the lyrics this year didn't allude in some way to our collective experience in 2020, but the overarching message is simple: No matter how distanced we are from one another, we have the power to be kind to one another and make an impact in someone's life. Together, our light shines so bright we can light up the world.
As usual, the kiddos - Julian (17) and Paisley (10) - are here, but this one was extra special. Julian taught himself how to play bass (and ukulele) during quarantine, so this year he is handling the bass duties. I think he did an admirable job.
From our family to yours, we wish you a Happy Holidays, a Merry Christmas, and a joyous New Year. Now more than ever, let's try to light up the world.
Love,
Brett, Cindi, Julian, Paisley...
and Sherlock...and Mameye
lyrics
It’s Christmas - this strange year it
Is kinda hard to feel the spirit
But it’s our time and we're here to
Spread kindness and good cheer
Whether you’re responsibly decking the halls
Or socially distancing in the malls
(Chorus)
Tonight we're gonna wake up the moon
The sun and the stars - soon will be ours
And together our light shines so bright, we can
Light up the world
We made it - December
To those we lost we say a prayer
Just hold on - tighter
We have the power to make the whole thing brighter
Just one small thing that we can ask
Let someone see the smile behind the mask
And tonight we’re gonna wake up the moon
The sun and the stars - soon will be ours
And together our light shines so bright, we can
Light up the world
And tonight we’re gonna wake up the moon
The sun and the stars - soon will be ours
And tonight we’re gonna wake the moon
The sun and the stars - soon will be ours
And tonight we’re gonna the moon
The sun and the stars - soon will be ours
And together our light shines so bright
Together our light shines so bright
Yeah, together our light shines so bright
We can light up the world
Light up the world
