Lyrics:

Dancing bears,
Painted wings,
Things I almost remember,
And a song someone sings,
Once upon a December.
Someone holds me safe and warm,
Horses prance through a silver storm,
Figures dancing gracefully across my memory
Far away,
Long ago,
Glowing dim as an ember,
Things my heart used to know,
Things it yearns to remember
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December

Heart don't fail me now
Courage don't desert me
Don't turn back now that we're here
People always say
Life is full of choices
No one ever mentions fear
Or how the world can seem so vast
On a journey to the past

Somewhere down this road
I know someone's waiting
Years of dreams just can't be wrong
Arms will open wide
I'll be safe and wanted
Finally home where I belong
Well starting now I'm learning fast
On this journey to the past

Home, love, family
There was once a time
I must have had them too
Home, love, family
I will never be complete until I find you

One step at a time
One hope, then another
Who knows where this road may go
Back to who I was
Onto find my future
Things my heart still needs to know
Yes, let this be a sign
Let this road be mine
Let it lead me to my past
And bring me home
At last.

such an underrated movie. too many people hate on it because of how far off it is from the actual historical events this movie is based on, which is too bad. its so charming and fun and the music is awesome :D i also wanted a little Pooka, not any of the disney sidekicks lol

[asiaashton]

I swear you are one of my guardian angels. I'm in the middle of a really bad panic attack and I just came across this on my feed, bless you. I am so lucky to be on this earth to be able to listen to voices like yours, the love that you put into your work goes right into my heart and soothes it everytime. Thank you so so much.

WHOS EXCITED FOR THE BROADWAY PRODUCTION OF ANASTASIA I AM I KNOW I AM

[mariebirosak]

So when are you going to be cast for a new Disney Princess's voice?

[PBironingboardII]

I'm pretty sure you broke some kind of rule about how much actual magic is allowed in this world. It's okay, I won't tell. ;)

[fayedeli]

who would like to see live action "rumour in st Petersburg"?

[piotrgowacki]

How I love your tone in the higher register. So warm, delicate, balanced, clean, without screaming. You and your husband are my favorite singers of all time.
