Song Lyric Sunday was created by Helen Vahdati from This Thing Called Life One Word at a Time. For complete rules or to join in the fun, click here.
This week’s theme is “season.”
In the spirit of the season, I have to go with Christmas songs!
In the 2000 live-action movie, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Cindy Lou Who sings the song Christmas, Why Can’t I find You? co-written by James Horner, Will Jennings and Mariah Carey.
They wrote a longer version of the song called Where Are You, Christmas?
The song was originally recorded by Carey, but because of a legal case with her ex-husband Tommy Mottola, it could not be released, so it was re-recorded and released by Faith Hill. A video was released featuring Hill singing from the Grinch’s mountaintop home, interspersed with clips from the film.
It’s been an annual Christmas favorite of my family ever since!
Enjoy!

Where Are You, Christmas?
Where are you Christmas
Why can’t I find you
Why have you gone away
Where is the laughter
You used to bring me
Why can’t I hear music play
I’m rearranging
Does that mean Christmas changes too
Do you remember
The one you used to know
I’m not the same one
See what the time’s done
Is that why you have let me go
Everywhere, oh
Christmas is here
If you care, oh
You will feel like Christmas all the time
I know I’ve found you
You never fade away, oh
The joy of Christmas
Stays here inside us
Fills each and every heart with love
Fill your heart with love
