White Christmas
Nicole Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
And children listen to hear sleighbells 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 your Christmasses be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
And children listen to hear sleighbells 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 your Christmasses be white
