White Christmas
Dreaming of Snowy Memories: The O'Jays' White Christmas
Lyrics
Oh I'm dreaming (ooh)
Expressing a desire or aspiration while asleep or in a trance-like state.
White Christmas
Affirmation of the desire for a Christmas with snow, symbolizing purity and joy.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Reiterating the dream of experiencing a snowy Christmas.
Just like the ones I used to know
Comparing the dream to past memories of snowy Christmases.
Where the treetops glisten (glisten) and children listen
Describing an ideal scene with shining treetops and attentive children.
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
Highlighting the festive atmosphere with the sound of sleigh bells in the snow.
Oh, I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Reiteration of the dream, emphasizing the longing for a white Christmas.
With every Christmas card I write
Linking the dream to the act of sending Christmas cards, a common holiday tradition.
"May your days be merry (merry and bright) and bright
Wishing joy and brightness for the recipient of the Christmas card.
And may all your Christmases be white"
Expressing a hope for all future Christmases to be filled with the happiness symbolized by "white."
Ooh white Christmas
Reiteration of the desire for a white Christmas.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Repeating the dream and the act of writing Christmas cards.
With every Christmas card I write
Continuing the wish for merry and bright days in the Christmas card.
"May your days, may your days be merry and bright
Emphasizing the desire for joy and brightness in the recipient's days.
And may all your Christmases be white"
Reiterating the hope for all Christmases to be white and joyful.
"May your days be merry and bright (merry and bright)
Repeating the wish for merry and bright days and white Christmases.
And may all your Christmases be white"
Restating the desire for all Christmases to be characterized by joy and whiteness.
White Christmas
Reiteration of the longing for a white Christmas.
Ooh, I'm dreaming, dreaming
Expressing the continuation of the dream or aspiration.
Hear the bells, white christmas, white Christmas
Hearing the bells and reaffirming the desire for a white Christmas.
Treetops glisten (white Christmas), children listen
Repeating the imagery of glistening treetops and listening children in the dream.
To hear the bells (white Christmas)
Hearing the bells in the snow, emphasizing the festive atmosphere.
Snow bells, white Christmas
Mentioning snow bells, further associating them with the dream of a white Christmas.
Dreaming, with every card I write
Continuing to dream and connect it with the act of writing Christmas cards.
Dreaming, white Christmas
Reiteration of the dream of a white Christmas.
May your days be bright (white Christmas)
Wishing for bright days and associating them with a white Christmas.
Dreaming, merry Christmas
Continuation of the dream and extending wishes for a merry Christmas.
