Let's Have a Merry Christmas
A Winter's Dream: Embracing Joy and Hope in 'Let's Have a Merry Christmas'
Lyrics
Midnight, walking in the snow
Walking in the snow at midnight.
Starlight sets the world aglow
Starlight illuminates the world.
Hoping to spy reindeer flying by
Hoping to see reindeer flying.
Like some forgotten dream from long ago
Reflecting on a dream from the past.
Let's have a merry Christmas
Expressing a desire for a joyful Christmas.
Let's deck the halls again
Suggesting decorating the halls again.
Let's have a merry Christmas
Reiterating the wish for a merry Christmas.
No matter what comes next
Embracing the holiday spirit regardless of future uncertainties.
All our faces, bright with cold
Describing faces brightened by the cold weather.
Gazing upward as we go
Gazing upward in anticipation.
We listen for bells
Listening for bells that signal joy.
Waiting for the swell of the wonder that we used to know
Waiting for the resurgence of a familiar wonder.
Can you hear the angels sing?
Pondering the possibility of hearing angels sing.
I'll imagine that I can
Choosing to imagine the angelic chorus.
Wait one moment more
Urging patience for a magical moment.
Hang the holly on the door
Symbolically decorating with holly on the door.
In hopes we'll all be home again
Hoping for a reunion with loved ones.
Let's have a merry Christmas
Reaffirming the wish for a merry Christmas.
Let's deck the halls again
Suggesting a repeat of festive decorations.
Let's have a merry Christmas
Reiterating the desire for a joyful Christmas.
No matter what comes next
Emphasizing the celebration despite uncertainties.
The holiest night
Acknowledging the holiness of the night.
Dancing 'neath the lights
Describing dancing beneath the lights.
Just like better times
Recalling better times with nostalgia.
Merry and bright
Wishing for a cheerful and bright Christmas.
Let's have a merry Christmas
Reiterating the desire for a merry Christmas.
Let's deck the halls again
Suggesting a repeat of festive decorations.
Let's have a merry Christmas
Reiterating the wish for a joyful Christmas.
No matter what comes next
Embracing the celebration regardless of future uncertainties.
