Inspired by: Joyeux Noël, Wherever We Go

Dedicated to my sister who lives in, France. French lyrics may be flawed, I am far from Fluent. However, with her encouragement, I do try. Joyeux Noël, Wherever We Go (Performed Lyrics – Approximate. Shared with love as I continue learning French. Love ya Sis.) Toutes les lumières d’hiver, la ville brille légère, (All the winter lights, the city shines softly,) Une chanson dans l’air, nos cœurs revivent hier. (A song in the air, our hearts relive yesterday.) Snow is falling tonight, Paris glowing in white, Every moment feels new, Like the season found you. Joyeux Noël, share the way, (Merry Christmas, share the way,) Hearts awake when the lights all play. Joyeux Noël, let it stay, (Merry Christmas, let it stay,) Hope and warmth in the winter sway. Holiday bells ring clear, Les sourires à offrir, (Smiles waiting to be shared,) Candles soft in the cold, Nos rêves reviennent plus beaux. (Our dreams return more beautiful.) Snow is falling tonight, Every shadow turns bright, Side by side or apart, Still we follow one heart. Joyeux Noël, share the way, (Merry Christmas, share the way,) Hearts awake when the lights all play. Joyeux Noël, let it stay, (Merry Christmas, let it stay,) Hope and warmth in the winter sway. Donnons le vent, un sourire, (Let’s offer the wind a smile,) Dans nos pas la neige chante, (In our footsteps, the snow sings,) Pour nous un Noël, (A Christmas for us,) Pour tout le monde. (For everyone.) Joyeux Noël, share the way, (Merry Christmas, share the way,) Hearts awake where the lights all play. Joyeux Noël, let it stay, (Merry Christmas, let it stay,) Love and light in the falling snow. Merry Christmas — Happy Holidays. ********************************************** Original Family Lyrics: Joyeux Noël, Wherever We Go — Lyrics (w/ English Translations) [Intro] Sous les lumières, Paris s’endort, (Under the lights, Paris falls asleep,) Mais nos cœurs brillent encore.
