Sleighride
Natalie Cole 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.
The opening lines of Natalie Cole's song, "Just hear those sleigh bells jingle-ing, ring-ting tingle-ing, too, Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you" immediately transport the listener into a wintery scene where the snow is falling, and the mood is merry. The lyrics invite the listener to embrace the season and take a sleigh ride with their loved one. The chorus, with its enthusiastic "Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap, let's go, Let's look at the show" ushers in a playful spirit of adventure amidst the snow. The song paints a romantic picture of two people snuggled up together enjoying the ride, with rosy cheeks and lots of warmth.
The song has a vibrant and nostalgic feel, and it encourages embracing the beauty of the winter season. The lyrics suggest there is joy to be found in spending time with loved ones, despite the cold, dark, and icy weather.
