I want it to rain this Christmas Day
I want the rain to
wash my tears away
***
To all the people I love
who are so far away
I want it to rain on Christmas Day
***
To all the people taken away
from their homes
So afraid of dying alone
***
To all those people
I would like to say
I want it to rain on Christmas Day
***
Oh, if I could only find
Some peace of mind
This Christmastime.
Nice one.
Thank you for listening, Mick
Very nice…..
Thanks, Don
I teared up while reading this. There are so many lonely people during the holidays.
Thanks, Kymber.
Santa with the umbrella is the cover art, for sure. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks for listening, Pam
Peace rains here.
Amen to that, E. Sum. Thanks for listening.
My pleasure., by George. :)
An instant classic!
Thanks, David! That means a lot.
I reckon we’ll be seeing this on Billboard’s new ‘Social 50’ list — check it out.
Ah, that would be sweet. Thanks, Mich
Bravo, I love it! Very noir.
Thanks, Drac. That will make my dad’s day because he is obsessed with 50s noir.
I came here looking for poetic whimsy, but found a dang good, surprisingly heartfelt Christmas song that I didn’t know I needed. Well done, good sir.
Thank you, Mike
The guy is a treasure, that’s for sure.
I appreciate your kind words.
It’s difficult to comment, as this is rather different to your usual posts. Not saying that those aren’t but this is very moving . The images in the video perfectly complement the mood. Thank you for sharing 💕
Thank you for listening, Wibi,
