Mistletoe And Wine
Steven Geraghty The child is a king
The carolers sing
The old is passed
With a new beginning
Dreams of Santa
Dreams of snow
Fingers numb
Faces aglow
Steven Geraghty + Chor Christmas time
Mistletoe and wine
Children singing
Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire
And gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice
In the good that we see
Steven Geraghty A time for living
A time for believing
A time for trusting
Not deceiving
Love and laughter
and joy ever after
Ours for the taking
Just follow the master
Steven Geraghty + Chor Christmas time
Mistletoe and wine
Children singing

With logs on the fire
And gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice
In the good that we see
Steven Geraghty + Chor Christmas time
Mistletoe and wine
Children singing
Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire
And gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice
In the good that we see

A time for getting
A time for forgiving
And for forgetting
Christmas is love
Christmas is peace
A time for hating
And fighting to cease
Steven Geraghty + Chor Christmas time

Informationen zum Lied
Cliff Richard machte "Mistletoe and Wine" 1988 zu einem Nummer-1-Hit in England. Gleichzeitig war es die meistverkaufte Single des Jahres.

Im Ursprung war "Mistletoe and Wine" jedoch ein Stück aus dem Musical Scraps (später umbenannt in The Little Match Girl), das auf dem Märchen "Das Mädchen mit den Schwefelhölzern" von Hans Christian Andersen basierte und nicht als Weihnachtslied gedacht. Mit Genehmigung der Songwriter änderte Cliff Richard das Lied ab und vergab einen religiösen Charakter.
Anmerkung
Für meinen Geschmack eines der schönsten Lieder von "Angel Voices" überhaupt.
