Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ahh, Ahh, Ahh, Ahh
Santa, make her my bride for Christmas
Santa, it wouldn't cost very much
Just a sprinkle of reindeer dust
A sprig of mistletoe
And the sound of your laughter
Santa, if you will use your magic
This Christmas eve
While I'm holding her titght
Then I'll whisper the proper thing
And offer her a ring
Please Santa, make her my Christmas bride
Santa, make me his bride for Christmas
Santa, it wouldn't cost too much
Just a sprinkle of reindeer dust
And a sprig of mistletoe
And the sound of your laughter
As you fly above the snow
Santa, if you will use your magic
This Christmas eve
While I'm holding her tight
Then we'll whisper the proper things
And wear each other's rings
Santa, make her my Christ- Christmas bride
Ahh, Ahh, Ahh, Ahh
Ahh, Ahh, Ahh, Ahh

My mom had this record album and we listened to it all the time when I was a kid. Listening to her music collection comforts me, but also makes me miss her so much.

I was really into Ray Conniff for several years. But my favourite Christmas song remains Mel Torme's...Chestnuts roasting on an open fire. I think it's called "Merry Christmas to You". Incidentally, when I used to sing professionally, I was compared to Karen Carpenter more than any other singer.
