Índigo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.
Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling "Yoo hoo"
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.
Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap, let's go,
Let's look at the show.
Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap, it's grand
Just holding your hand.
We're gliding along with a song of a wintery fairy land.
Our cheeks are nice and rosy and comfy cozy are we,
We're snuggled up together like two birds of a feather would be.
Let's take that road before us and sing a chorus or two
Come on it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.
Indigo's song "Sleigh Ride" is a charming classic that captures the essence of winter joy and the warmth of companionship. In the opening lines, the lyrics describe the sound of sleigh bells jingling and tingling.

The invitation to join in the sleigh ride is extended to the listener, creating a feeling of inclusion and shared joy.
The next part sets the scene - "outside the snow is falling, and friends are calling 'Yoo-hoo.'" Through the anticipation of the winter weather and the joy of companionship, the song takes the listener on a journey through a winter wonderland. The words and the melody create a sense of adventure as they describe the experience of riding through the snow.
As the song progresses, the lyrics describe the feeling of companionship through the lines: " Our cheeks are nice and rosy and comfy cozy are we, We're snuggled up together like two birds of a feather would be." This feeling of togetherness creates a sense of warmth and security, helping to drive home the sense of shared experience and joy that informs the song's message.
