I truly hope it strikes a chord with you. For me, that is what Christmas comes to remind me of each year. Each moment is an opportunity for more love. Love each other well and wait not for tomorrow to do better. Let us be good to one another, be tolerant and forgiving, patient and mindful. For no one really knows how long we have. I imagined a church on Christmas Eve, and put myself there, as a person trying to make sense of things, find hope, and feel gratitude for this life we’ve been given. Leading up to Christmas, I became aware of how such feelings intensify during this time of year. Rather a song about coming to terms with the loss of a loved one, and the converations one continues to have with them in one’s mind, even after they are gone. It did not, however, become a Christmas song about joy and magic in the air. Now You Know Marketa Irglova - Only in Your Head. Magdalena did not start as a Christmas song, but became one as I followed the direction in which it took me. Only in Your Head Lyrics von Marketa Irglova mit Video: Right now its only in your head / But that might very well be all / Its gonna take to make it. I love imagining Bethlehem and the star, the three kings, a humble manger and a baby being born. For that reason I have always been more drawn to carols about the Nativity story, rather than Santa Clause and presents. A connection to the past and the future, to people near and far, friends and strangers alike. A deep and profound stillness within, out of which connection is born. A hightened feeling of presence where the world seemingly slows down in pace and quiets down in volume. A magical time of anticipation and excitement, filled with a joyful, childlike sense of wonder. Right now it's only in your headBut that might very well be all It's gonna take to make it come to pass But is that really what you'd like And if not why occupy your mind with it at all Thoughts grow just as easily as grass As easily as weed, if you don't want it In your. One that captured the essence of what I believed Christmas to be about. I have always wanted to write a Christmas song.
