Winter Wonderland




Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?

In the lane snow is glistening

A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight

Walking in a winter wonderland.



Couple Walking In The Snow
(1900)

American art teacher and illustrator



Gone away is the bluebird

Here to stay is a new bird

He sings a love song as we go along

Walking in a winter wonderland.


In the meadow we can build a snowman

Then pretend that he is Parson Brown

He'll say, "Are you married?"

We'll say, "No man, but you can do

 the job when you're in town."


Later on, we'll conspire

As we dream by the fire

To face unafraid, the plans that we've made

Walking in a winter wonderland.




"Winter Wonderland"
(1934)
 Composed by Felix Bernard
Lyrics by Richard B. Smith
