Alive Network Artist Steve Young Releases A Christmas Single For Help For Heroes
Alive Network's highly popular singer/guitarist, Steve Young, has released a Christmas single with all proceeds going to the Help For Heroes charity.
Alive Network's highly popular solo singer/guitarist, Steve Young, has released a Christmas single with all proceeds going to the "Help For Heroes" charity.
Steve often donates to various charities at Christmas time so he decided that if he was going to release a Christmas single, it would have to be for charity. On his reasons for choosing 'Help For Heroes' as his charity, Steve said
My father was an officer in the Royal Navy so I feel a connection with 'Help For Heroes'. He saw action in the 50's & 60's and was sometime away from home for up to two years.
Also a good friend of mine who is a Police officer heard the song when I was recording it and he felt that the lyrics applied to the services as many are away from home abroad at Christmas time.
Help for Heroes is a charity formed to help those who have been wounded in Britain's current conflicts.

Anywhere This Christmas - Steve Young
The nights are closing in
I'm counting down the days
I'm heading on my travels
But I'll soon be back again
The first snow is falling
Lazy on the breeze
I hear my baby calling
Whispers in the trees.
Chorus:
City after city
Night after night
Lonely dreams of pretty things
That keep you on my mind
I could be anywhere this Christmas
Anywhere at all
But it just won't feel like Christmas
Until I'm home with you
I'm waiting for the sunrise
Looking for a sight
Something that I recognise
On this cold and silent night
I'm pushing through the crowd
Longing for your face
You put your arms around me
And it's Christmas I can taste
(Chorus)
The wind is whispering gently
Your breathing slow and warm
Sleeping here beside you
There's nowhere quite like home
And when it's time to leave you
I'll hold you in my arms
Tell you that I love you
That you'll always be mine
(Chorus)
And though I'm not there with you
I'll soon be on my way
Cause it just won't be a Christmas
Until I'm home with you
