Mix: The Grinch - How the Grinch Stole a Heart!
Fandom: How The Grinch Stole Christmas!
Subject: Cindy Lou/Grinch
Title: How The Grinch Stole A Heart!
A story about learning to give up the commercialism of Christmas, and how spending time with the one you love is the best gift Santa can bring.
More pairing art here; larger version of the cover art here.
The Muppet Christmas Carol ~*~ Scrooge
(The Grinch himself. He's a vile one, yes, but could there be something else there?)
When a cold wind blows it chills you
Chills you to the bone
But there's nothin' in nature that freezes your heart
Like years of bein' alone
Its paints you with indifference
Like a lady paints with rouge
And the worst of the worst
The most hated and cursed
Is the one that we call Scrooge...
He must be so lonely
He must be so sad
He goes to extremes to convince us he's bad
He's really a victim of fear and of pride
Look close and there must be a sweet man inside...
Naah!
Aimee Mann ~*~ You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch
(The would-be theft of Christmas.)
You're a vile one, Mr Grinch
You've got termites in your smile
You have all the tender sweetness
Of a seasick crocodile
Mr Grinch
(Given the choice between the two of you, I'd take the...seasick crocodile!)
CHEMISTRY ~*~ My Gift To You
(And yet, even in the midst of all this, he finds himself reassuring little Cindy Lou.)
Otona ni nari yume ni hagurete
Tomadou boku no mae ni kimi ga tatte ita
Ite tsuiteru chiisana te wo nigirishimeru koto shika
Boku ni wa ataerareru mono wa nai keredo
Itsu mademo itsu mademo soba ni ite ageyou
Sore ga kimi e no boku no okurimono
I grew up and lost track of my dreams
And then, amid my confusion, there you were, standing in front of me
All I can do for you
Is grip your little, frozen hand
But I’ll be by your side forever, forever
That’s my gift to you
Taylor Swift ~*~ Christmas Must Be Something More
(She's the one who teaches him the lesson: it's not about the presents.)
What if angels did not pay attention to
All the things that we wish they would always do
What if happiness came in a cardboard box
Then I'd think there was something we all forgot
What would happen if presents all went away
Tell me what would you find
You'd say that today holds something special
Something holy and not superficial...
So here's something you should know that is for sure
Christmas must be something more
98 Degrees ~*~ This Gift
(Still, as she gets older, he finds himself wanting to give her something special anyway.)
I thought I'd give you somethin' shiny and new
I tried to find somethin' worthy of you
But I realized, when I looked inside
There's some things that money can't buy
(Oh no), I feel the magic, whenever you're near
I feel it even more this time of the year
Wilson Phillips ~*~ Hey Santa
(Every holiday season, she looks forward to his return more and more.)
Christmas lights up and down the street
Are such a sight to see
But all the presents by the tree
They don't mean a thing, Santa, please hear me
Hey Santa
Hey Santa (Santa)
I wish with all my might
Hey Santa
Hey Santa (Santa)
If you hear me, won't you hurry, bring my baby tonight
Viki Carr ~*~ It Must Have Been The Mistletoe
(And then, at last, one year it all comes together.)
It could have been the holiday,
The midnight ride upon sleigh
The countryside all dressed in white
The crazy snowball fight
It could have been the steeple bell
That wrapped us up in its spell
It only took one kiss to know
It must have been the mistletoe
Our first Christmas
More than we'd be dreaming of
Old St. Nicholas
Must have know that kiss
Would lead to all of this
The Long Winters ~*~ Christmas With You Is The Best
(They make their own traditions...with their own kind of presents.)
We both hate the holidays
Our parents act crazy
And the mall is insane
Let's skip it all
And have a non-traditional non-denominational celebration
Christmas with you is the best
We'll have no turkey or guest
Sleeping late but before we get dressed
I want to give you a present
It was fun when I was a kid
And then it started getting strange
I got too old for toys and games
And now I have you
And I think we should choose
A non-traditional non-denominational celebration
Roberta Flack & Peabo Bryson ~*~ The Gift
(He tries to explain just how much she means to him.)
All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
From being broken apart
You gave your love away
And I'm thankful every day
For the gift
Yuna Ito ~*~ All I Want For Christmas Is You
(And she reminds him just how thoroughly she loves him.)
I don’t want a lot for Christmas
There’s just one thing I need
I don’t care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don’t need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won’t make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
