Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So, let me take your hand
And lead you through a snow white land.
Oh, oh.
Oh, oh.
My love, the year is older.
So, let me hold you tight
Oh, oh.
I see the firelight in your eyes.
Come kiss me now, before it dies.
We'll find a winter world of love,
'Cause love is warmer in December.
My darlin', stay here in my arms
Till summer comes along
And in our winter world of love,
You see, we always will remember
That as the snow lay on the ground,
We found our winter world of love.
Because the nights are longer,
We'll have the time to say such tender things
Before each day.
Oh, oh.
Oh, oh.
And then, when love is stronger,
Perhaps, you'll give your heart
And promise that we'll never part, oh, no.
And at the end of every year,
I'll be so glad to have you near.
We'll find a winter world of love,
'Cause love is warmer in December.
My darlin', stay here in my arms
Till summer comes along
And in our winter world of love,
You see, we always will remember
That as the snow lay on the ground,
We found our winter world of love.

You see, we always will remember

That as the snow lay on the ground,
As the snow falls, I am grateful to have you by my side.
Because the nights are longer,
Long nights give us more time to express our true feelings to each other.
We'll have the time to say such tender things
We can speak openly and lovingly without interruption during the winter nights.
Before each day.
Having the opportunity to share our hearts at night sets us up for better days ahead.
And then, when love is stronger,
As our love grows stronger, our bond will become even more unbreakable.
Perhaps, you'll give your heart
Maybe, you'll be willing to share your heart with me even more.
And promise that we'll never part, oh, no.
We'll make a promise to stay together and never part.
And at the end of every year,
As the year comes to a close, I will always cherish our time together.
I'll be so glad to have you near.
Your presence brings me joy and I'll always be happy to have you close.
'Cause love is warmer in December.
December is a special month for our love and we will always treasure it.
We found our winter world of love.
Together, we discovered a beautiful world of love during the winter season.

My mother fell in love with Englebert in the early 70s.
She absolutely LOVED his full, beautiful 💋 lips.
Yep. She passed away in '87 at age 47. Now, I'm about 64, & I sure have noticed his lips. Voice & 💋 lips are still the same as many decades ago. ♥️

A memorable song during the Winter of 1969/70. Many of us grew up listening to different types of music by various singers. Engelbert truly was a singer worth listening to. And it’s so hard to believe that this was 51 years ago...
Louise Fletcher
Once of his best songs...His voice so clear and beautiful! Love this song, he’s looking pretty good also!
Good Shepherd Films
Outstanding vocals
Ramon Buckland
A timeless great song sung by a great 'artist'.
