Winter Wonderland
The Starlite Singers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the lane, snow is glist'nin',
A beautiful sight, we're happy to night
Walkin' in a winter wonderland!
Gone away is the bluebird,
Here to stay is a new bird;
He sings a love song as we go along
Walkin' in a winter wonderland!
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown;
Hell say, â??Are you married?â??
We'll say, â??No man!
But you can do the job when you're in town!â??
Later on we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire,
To face unafraid the plans that we made
Walkin' in a winter wonderland!

Sleigh bells ring; are you list'nin'?
Can you hear the sounds of the sleigh bells ringing?
In the lane, snow is glist'nin'
Snow is sparkling and shining in the lane
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
It's a delightful view and we are joyful this evening
Walkin' in a winter wonderland!
We are strolling in a magical winter setting
Gone away is the bluebird
The bluebird has flown away
Here to stay is a new bird
A new bird has arrived and is here to stay
He sings a love song as we go along
While we continue on, he sings a romantic song
Walkin' in a winter wonderland!
We are still strolling in the magical winter setting
In a meadow we can build a snowman
There is a meadow where we have the opportunity to build a snowman
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
We pretend that the snowman is a clergyman named Parson Brown
He'll say, 'Are you married?'
Parson Brown, the snowman, will inquire if we are married
We'll say, 'No man!'
We will respond, 'No, we are not married!'
But you can do the job when you're in town!'
However, if you are in town, you can officiate our wedding
Later on we'll conspire
Later, we will plan together secretly
As we dream by the fire
While we dream next to the fireplace
To face unafraid the plans that we made
We will confidently confront the plans we have prepared
Walkin' in a winter wonderland!
Continuing to stroll in the magical winter setting
