1946 Version
Sleigh bells ring, are ya listenin' ?
In the lane snow is glistenin'
a beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
walkin' in a winter wonderland!
Gone away is the bluebird
here to stay is a new bird
he sings a love song as we go along
walkin' 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've made
walkin' in a winter wonderland!
Sleigh bells ring, are ya listenin' ?
In the lane snow is glistenin'
a beautiful sight, we're happy tonight . . .
Oh! . . . walkin' in a winter wonderland!
Gone away is the bluebird
here to stay is a new bird . . .
he sings a love song as we go along
walkin' 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've made
walkin' in a winter wonderland!
We'll be happy in love
as two turtle doves
livin' in a fairy land! . . .
Oh! . . . we'll be walkin'
in a winter wonderland!It's been a year now
Since you were here now
And I've been trying to heal inside
Dedications have all been placed
And I see your resemblance in my face
And on our birthday I said an extra wish for you, for you
And I have learned so much since you've been gone
And I have done so little for so long
So now I'll settle up my grievences
And focus on the savory
And wave all these discrepancies away
And I'll peter out these misconceptions
Give out faith at my discretion
Live a life that you would think was sane, sane
Displaying changes
That they have made
And I wonder if you really wanted it this way
And in your memory they even hung a plaque for you, for you
And I have learned so much since you been gone
And I have done so little for so long
So now I'll settle up these grievences
And focus on the savory
And wave all these discrepancies away
And I'll peter out these misconceptions
Give out faith at my discretion
Live a life that you would think was sane, sane
