Winter Wonderland
Music:Felix Bernard
Lyrics:Dick Smith

Over the ground lies a mantle of white,
A heaven of diamonds shine down thro'
the night,
Two hearts are thrillin' in spite of the chill in
the weather.
Love knows no season, love knows no clime,
Romance can blossom any old time,
Here in the open we're walking and hoping together!

Sleigh bells ring, are you list'nin'?!

In the lane snow is glis'nin',
A beautiful sight,
We're happy tonight,
Walking in a winter wonderland!

Gone away is the blue bird,

Here to stay is a new bird,
He sings a love song,
As we go along,
Walking in a winter wonderland!

In the meadow we can build a snowman

Then pretend that he is Parson Brown,
He'll say 'Are you married?'
We'll say 'No, man! But you can do the
job when you're in town!'

Later on we'll conspire,

As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid,
The plans that we made,
Walking in a winter wonderland!

Sleigh bells ring, are you lis'nin'?! etc...

Silver Bells
Written:Jay Livingston/Ray Evans

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling
Of Christmas
Children laughing, people passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you'll hear

Silver bells
Silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling
Hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas Day

Strings of streetlights, even stoplights
Blink of bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all the bustle you'll hear

Silver bells
Silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas Day
Soon it will be Christmas Day

White Christmas
Written:Irving Berlin

The sun is shinning the grass is green
The orange and palm trees sway
There's never been such a day
In Beverly Hills L.A.
But it's December the 24th
And I'm longing to be up north

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmas's be white

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmas's be white
