Lyrics
Winterlights and Fun
Chorus: See the warm glow of the Winterlights glist'ning on the snow
Fantasy of snowflakes, crystal white, dancing in the air
Friendly faces fill our hearts with love for ev'ryone
Winter celebration, music ev'rywhere Winterlights and Fun
Chlidren leaving angel-prints and sliding down the hills
Building forts and snowmen, chasing friends for thrills
Playful parents, young again join thier carefree way
Inspiration to our souls and living for each day
Chorus
Lovers holding mitten hands, strollin' in the park
Warmin' one anothers hearts near frozen works of art
Skaters etching tangled trails down the river bend
Laughing echoes multiply, the feeling never ends
Chorus
Jack Frost tryin' very hard at keepin' things real cool
Neighbours, friends and families are makin' him a fool
Chorus
