Day 272

As a Military Wife, I have always preferred the original lyrics to this Christmas classic performed by Judy Garland in Meet Me in St. Louis. It makes me think of happier Christmases to come.

"Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
Next year all our troubles will be
out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the yule-tide gay
Next year all our troubles will be
miles away
Once again as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who were dear to us
Will be near to us once more
Someday soon, we all will be together
If the Fates allow
Until then, we'll have to muddle through somehow
So have yourself a merry little Christmas now."

—Original Lyrics by Hugh Martin
