Maggiemags Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 And we're frozen in this moment, safe inside our paper walls Holding on to where we came from, not too far from here at all We can stay so close together, and there's strength in being one I feel life is so much better when it's Christmas and I'm home. And I wish you all you want, and I wish you love, I wish you Merry Christmas and I hope that it's enough If I could, I'd make you happy, give you something you don't have You could change if change is needed, make you happy when you're sad I feel life is so much better when it's Christmas and I'm home. And I wish you all you want, and I wish you love, and I wish you Merry Christmas and I hope that it's enough And I wish you all you want, and I wish you love, and I wish you Merry Christmas and I hope that it's enough I feel life is so much better when it's Christmas and I'm home by Gareth Gates and Judie Tzuke.

Khelda Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 wow I love them, he is a clever boy. Wonder if it will end on the album or maybe as a B side sometime? And how nice of him to give us and the rest of the people listening a new song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowdrop Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 Fabulous - and a treat for us all. I think we'd have to wait until there was a Christmas single to get it recorded, but this makes it more special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rejuvenated Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 Lovely, thank you Maggie. It must be great for Gareth to be able to talk about and then sing a co-written song, especially to his home crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jill Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 Thanks Maggie. How beautiful those lyrics are. Made me all choked up again reading them. I've been choked up since hearing him last night. Thanks from the bottom of my heart to everyone who made it possible. Love Jill xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R4RLJ Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 Aww, thats lovely Thankyou Maggie. When Gareth mentioned that he had wrote a song specially for the light's, i was thinking ooo, something new lol. Must admit as soon as we were home and de-iced , i downloaded the files off here and listened all over again, I could hear it properly then. It's lovely to be there when it's happening, but sometimes you can't hear right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorksheather Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 Thanks Maggie,it's a lovely song.As Rachel said it's a bit noisy there with all the screaming,it's lovely to be able to listen to it properly and in comfort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GarethsHotChick Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 Thank You for posting the lyrics to Gareths song Christmas And I'm Home Maggie, It is such a beautiful song. I thought he sang it really well, I was pleased to hear that he has been working on his album and on his speech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggiemags Posted November 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 this makes it more special. Doesn't it just? A one-off - how lucky we are to have been able to hear it. I must admit to being worried when he said he was going to sing something new - a fleeting moment of anxiety in case I didn't like it But I'm delighted to say I've yet to be disappointed by any of Mr Gates' self-penned stuff (or indeed anything he didn't write, once he sings it ) and I loved it.

Sharon=Gareths no1 fan Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 Amazing song! Per usual I love it, I love everything Gareth sings. Wonderful lyrics, they're so beautiful and I'm so proud of him for wiritng it. I'm listening to it on repeat and I just can't stop tearing up.

Floz Posted November 21, 2004 Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 I wondered if he/she was anything to do with Judie T or her company? Maybe I am reading too much into it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
