Visual Delight: It’s Christmas-decoration time again, some garish, some restrained. Among the latter are the decorous delights created by Sebastien Lahuile, who works from Shanghai, China, as The French Floral Artist and designed this year’s seasonal show at Ayana Resort and Spa, Jimbaran.

Christmas Time

by Backstreet Boys

There is something special
About this time of year
The christmas feeling's everywhere
I just got home to join you
I've been away too long (been away too long)
But now I'm back
To share my love
Friends are reunited
One big family
Filled with love
To last throughout the year

[Chorus:]
Christmas time, time to share our love
Come and join the tidings to the world
Christmas time, the best time of the year
Yes, it's christmas time

You and me together
A sleigh ride in the park
A loving kiss straight, straight from my heart
Snowflakes are falling gently
The smell of chestnuts in the air
And the Christmas lights they gleam across the sky
Oh oh oh, it's Christmas time

[Chorus]

Do you remember? (do you remember)
Everything felt so right
When I held you close to me
Do you remember?
Those cold Christmas nights
When we saw the world in harmony
[Chorus]

Christmas time, time to share our love
Come and join the tidings to the world (x4)

[Chorus to fade]

Lyrics:
Oh yeah yeah...
Last night I took a walk in the snow,
Couples holdin hands, places to go,
Seems like everyone but me is in love
Santa can you hear me?
I signed my letter that I sealed with kiss,
I sent it off, it just said this:
"i know exactly what I want this year"
Santa can you hear me?
I want my baby, baby
I want someone to love me, someone to hold,
Maybe maybe,
He'll be all my own in a big red bow
Santa can you hear me?
I have been so good this year
And all I want is one thing,
Tell me my true love is here
He's all I want, just for me
Underneath my christmas tree
I'll be waiting here
Santa that's my only wish this year

Yeahh...
Christmas eve, I just can't sleep
Would I be wrong for takin a peek
'cause I heard that you're comin to town
Santa can you hear me?
I really hope that you're on your way
With something special for me in your sleigh
Oh please make my wish come true,
Santa can you hear me?
I want my baby, baby
I want someone to love me, someone to hold
Baby, baby, baby
We'll be all alone under the mistletoe
Santa can you hear me?
I have been so good this year,
All I want is one thing
Tell me my true love is here
He's all I want, just for me
Underneath my christmas tree
I'll be waiting here
Santa that's my only wish this year

I hope my letter reaches you in time, (oh yeah)
Bring me love I can call all mine (oh yeah)
'cause I have been so good this year, (oh oh)
Can't be alone under the mistletoe,
He's all I want in a big red bow.

Santa can you hear me?
I have been so good this year
And all I want is one thing
Tell me my true love is near
He's all I want, just for me
Underneath my christmas tree
I'll be waiting here,
Santa that's my only wish this year
Ahh ahh ahh
Oh santa, can you hear me...?
Oh santa, well he's all I want
Just for me, underneath my christmas tree
I'll be waiting here,
Santa that's my only wish this year
Santa that's my only wish this year.

Merry Christmas everyone! ;)
