The Christmas Waltz Songtext
von Billy Stritch

Frosted windowpanes, candles gleaming inside
Painted candy canes on the tree
Santa′s on his way, he's filled his sleigh with things
Things for you and for me
It′s that time of year
When the world falls in love
Every song you hear seems to say
Merry Christmas, may your New Year dreams come true
And this song of mine in three-quarter time
Wishes you and yours the same thing, too


Frosted windowpanes (come with me)
Candles gleaming inside (let's see the lights, very nice)
Painted candy canes on the tree
(It's a wonder, Manhattan′s nice over ice)
Santa′s on his way (he'll have cozy room)
He′s filled his sleigh with things
(We'll sip some nog and light the log)
(Christmas will be) Things for you and for me
It′s that time of year (let's take the Upper West)
When the world falls in love (it′s the best for strolling)
Every song you hear seems to say (we'll buy a mean evergeen)
Merry Christmas (Merry Christmas)
May your New Year dreams come true
(I'm dreaming of with every Christmas card I write)
And this song of mine in three-quarter time
(And I′ll say, wishing all of)
Wishes you and yours the same thing, too

The angels sing at Rockefeller center
To a Christmas waltz in winter
They really swing in the snow their drop it′s below three quarter time
And I ba rum bum bumming
Sugar plumming to the skies
Soon it's January my, how the time flies

It′s that time of year (It's time)
When the world falls in love (to fall in love, dreaming of the wonder)
Every song you hear
Seems to say (sing every song from your heart)
Merry Christmas (let your heart be light)
May your new year′s dreams come true
(Your star will find you and stars remind you that dreams come true)
And this song of mine (hear my song)
In three-quarter time (wishing all of)
Wishes you and yours
The same thing too, Oo
