Dec. 10-25, 2011

Welcome to the Songs of the Season music hop! You're invited to join us every day from December 10-25, to enjoy a virtual round of caroling.

You can visit another blog each day to find another wonderful music selection, handpicked by a great host. Schedule

Here's my selection for your enjoyment!

Title: Amid the Falling Snow
Artist: Enya
Available at: Amazon on Enya: Sounds of the Season and Amarantine: Special Christmas edition

***Please pause the music player in the upper right sidebar 
before enjoying this selection***


Enya's music always evokes an old world feeling for me.  Her music is
so peaceful.  I just love listening to it with the lights turned low, candles
burning, and the Christmas tree alight.  This song is especially lovely.

Lyrics:
How I remember sleepless nights
When we would read by candlelight,
And on the windowpane outside
A new world made of snow;

A million feathers falling down,
A million stars that touch the ground,
So many secrets to be found
Amid the falling snow.

Maybe I am falling down.
Tell me should I touch the ground?
Maybe I won't make a sound
In the darkness all around.

The silence of a winter's night
Brings memories I hold inside;
Remembering a blue moonlight
Upon the fallen snow.

Maybe I am falling down.
Tell me should I touch the ground?
Maybe I won't make sound
In the darkness all around.

I close my window to the night.
I leave the sky her tears of white.
And all is lit by candlelight
Amid the falling snow.

Thank you for visiting and taking the time to comment. It means so much.

I apologize for word verification, but as soon as I changed the settings from only users with Google accounts, I started receiving a ton of spam comments...within one hour of changing the settings. The bots are on high alert apparently.

  6. It's a long time since I've heard Enya, but it's true she has an enigmatic way of singing
