Verse: Over the ground lies a mantle of white,
A heaven of diamonds shine down through the night;
Two hearts are thrillin’ in spite of the chillin' weather.
Love knows no season, love knows no clime,
Romance can blossom any old time;
Here in the open we’re walkin’ and hopin’ together.
Chorus 1: Sleigh bells ring, are you listenin’?
In the lane, snow is glistenin’;
A beautiful sight, we’re happy tonight,
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.
In the meadow we can build a snowman,
And pretend that he is Parson Brown;
He’ll say, "Are you married?" We’ll say, "No, man"
But you can do the job while you’re in town.
Later on we’ll conspire,
As we dream by the fire,
To face unafraid the plans that we made,
Walkin’ in a Winter Wonderland
Chorus 2: Sleigh bells ring, are you listenin’?
In the lane, snow is glistenin’;
A beautiful sight, we’re happy tonight,
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.
In the meadow we can build a snowman,
And pretend that he’s a circus clown;
We’ll have lots of fun with Mister Snowman,
Until the other kiddies knock him down.
When it snows ain’t it thrillin’,
Though your nose gets a chillin’;
We’ll frolic and play the Eskimo way,
Walkin’ in a Winter Wonderland.
Walkin’ in a Winter Wonderland.
Walkin’, Walkin' in a Winter Wonderland.
