Happy Holidays, God Jul, and Joyous Festivus to all. Please listen to our original song about our favorite holiday the Winter Solstice.

lyrics

Driving around The city
In the dark just around five
All the lights are so pretty
With my partner on a drive
Snows’ loud under the tires
Houses’ brightly lit like fires
As the night grows cold
Coasting into the unknown

The cold lights, warm our nights
The solstice is finally here
The longest night of the year
Our family and all our friends
Are now gathered with us again

From Kenwood to Ramsey
The Decorations Divine
The plows finished early
We’ll make it back on time
The firewood has all been split
all the fires are now lit
Let’s drink and be merry
With ghost story’s quite scary

The cold lights, warm our nights
The solstice is finally here
The longest night with no fear
Our family and our friends
Are now gathered with us again
