Distance Christmas

by SeaStar

supported by

opramum This track moves me so much. I'm grieving so much over all the traditions I'm missing this year. Honestly, those who aren't here are having so much fun elsewhere and it kind of hurts.
However, as you say, we've been so blessed throughout the years, and next year we will be together again.

about

Here's a little Christmas song that Fae wrote on the 24th of November 2020. Things may be different this year but LOVE always makes it home.
Stay healthy, hopeful, and always keep a song in your heart!

This song was 100% recorded remotely in three different locations. It was mixed, nurtured, and mastered by Four Lumen Studio in Kirkland, WA.

lyrics

Distance Christmas
Music and lyrics by Fae Wiedenhoeft
24 November 2020

The leaves on the trees begin to fall
as the summer says farewell.
The time of year is coming on for giving.

Our plans have changed, I am far away wishing
I could be with you.
But I’ll stay here so next year no one’s missing.

Love is bright and big they say
it takes on many things.
It holds us up and reaches miles away.
And though we have to be apart on this holiday
close your eyes and know you’re not alone.
Like the suns return when a storm has passed
on a cold December day
My love’s a light that always makes it home.

All around the world this year
folks are distancing in love.
Traditions changed yet that Christmas star seems brighter.

We’ve been quite blessed throughout the years
filled with laughter, hugs, and touch.
Next year we’ll hold each other a little stronger.

Love is bright and big they say
it takes on many things.
It holds us up and reaches miles away.
And though we have to be apart on this holiday
close your eyes and know you’re not alone.
Like the suns return when a storm has passed
on a cold December day
My love’s a light that always makes it home.
My love’s a light that always makes it home.
