'







a little musical foreshadowing…
one of the things I’ve been working on.
UPDATE: Here’s the live acoustic debut.


Christmas Longing

music and lyrics by Luna Jade

I lay wide awake in the morning light
My soul is a-tremble inside
I dream on this Christmas morning
Bye and bye, bye and bye

I look to the heavens with starry eyes
and see all their glory alive
with hope for a new day dawning
Bye and bye, bye and bye

Chorus:
I sing with a heart in yearning
I pray that as years go by
there’s an end to all warring
Bye and bye, bye and bye


I long for a world full of love & light,
I hope for a peace divine
I dream on this Christmas morning
Bye and bye, bye and bye

Double Chorus:

I sing with a heart in yearning
I pray that as years go by
There’s an end to all warring
Bye and bye, bye and bye

In my heart there’s a restless yearning
for peace in a world denied
This is my Christmas Longing
Bye and bye, bye and bye

writer’s note: The melody came to me first, a while ago… beautiful, poignant.
It would stand by itself as an instrumental (and it will :)
I’ve been working with it to craft the right words to fit the mood and the message…
and I believe I’ve found them.
I look forward to sharing it with you!
