Happy Christmas
Handsome & Gretyl Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Have yourself a little happy Christmas
Have a happy day
Let all your worries fall away
Once you have a little happy heart
Let the dreaming start
Happy new year is on it's way

Something in the air is ever calling
Dear friends to gather, near and far away
And we are all connected to each other
We're brother, sister, everyone, today

Have yourself a little happy Christmas
Have a happy day
Let all your worries fall away
Once you have a little happy heart
Let the dreaming start
Happy new year is on it's way

Have a happy happy Christmas
Have a happy happy day
If you're laughing everything will go your way
Have a happy happy Christmas
Have a happy happy day
Have a happy happy happy holiday

Have yourself a little happy Christmas
Have a happy day
Let all your worries fall away
Have yourself a little happy heart
Le the dreaming start




Happy new year is on it's way
Happy new year is on it's way
