Christmas
Carreras Domingo Pavarotti Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree-tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
And may all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree-tops 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 you Christmases be bright
The lyrics of Carreras Domingo Pavarotti's song "Christmas" invoke a sense of nostalgia and longing for the classic, picturesque Christmas that many of us have only experienced in our imaginations. The singer dreams of a white Christmas, referencing the snow-covered tree-tops and the sound of sleigh bells in the snow that are characteristic of this idealized holiday. The repeated refrain of "I'm dreaming of a white Christmas" underscores the singer's deep desire for this type of holiday experience, as if it were unattainable to them in reality.
The song also expresses the singer's hopes for those they care about. They write Christmas cards wishing for "days [that] are merry and bright" and that "all [their] Christmases be white." This sentiment emphasizes the central importance of the holiday season in bringing people together and fostering joy and community.
