Utopia

Believe - Josh Groban (From The Polar Express Soundtrack)

Children, sleeping.
Snow is softly falling.
Dreams are calling, 
Like bells in the distance.
We were dreamers,
Not so long ago.
But one by one, we
All had to grow up.

When it seems the magic slipped away… 
We find it all again on Christmas Day.

Believe in what your heart is saying, 
Hear the melody that’s playing.
There’s no time to waste, 
There so much to celebrate.
Believe in what you feel inside,
And give your dreams the wings to fly.
You have everything you need, if you just believe.

Trains move quickly
To their journey’s end.
Destinations…
Are where we begin again.
Ships go sailing,
Far across the sea.
Trusting starlight, 
To get where they need to be.

When it seems that we have lost our way…
We find ourselves again on Christmas Day.

Believe in what your heart is saying, 
Hear the melody that’s playing
There’s no time to waste, 
There’s so much to celebrate.
Believe in what you feel inside,
And give your dreams the wings to fly.
You have everything you need, if you just believe.

If you just believe.
If you just believe.
If you just believe…just believe…just believe.

Silent Night - Michael Bublé

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love’s pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus - Jackson 5 

Wow! Mommy’s kissing Santa Claus! 
I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus 
Underneath the mistletoe last night 
She didn’t see me creep 
Down the stairs to have a peep 
She thought that I was tucked up 
In my bedroom, fast asleep 

Then I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus 
Underneath his beard so snowy white 
Oh, what a laugh it would have been 
If Daddy had only seen 
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night 

He saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus 
I did! I really did see Mommy kissing Santa Claus 
And I’m gonna tell my Dad 

Then I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus 
Underneath his beard so snowy white 
Oh, what a laugh it would have been 
If Daddy had only seen 
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night 

Oh, what a laugh it would have been 
If Daddy had only seen 
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night 

I did! I did! I really did see Mommy kissing Santa Claus 
You gotta believe me! You just gotta believe me! 
Come on, fellas, believe me! You just gotta believe me!

Winter Wonderland - Bing Crosby

Sleigh bells ring, are you listenin’
In the lane, snow is glistenin’
A beautiful sight, we’re happy tonight
Walking 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
Walking 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, 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

Sleigh bells ring, are you listenin’
In the lane, snow is glistenin’
A beautiful sight, we’re happy tonight
Walking 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
Walking 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
Yes, until the other kiddies knock him down

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
Walking in a winter wonderland

Silver Bells - The Ray Conniff Singers

Silver bells, Silver bells

Soon it will be Christmas Day

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks

Dressed in Holiday style

In the air there’s a feeling of Christmas

Children laughing, people passing

Meeting smile after smile

And on every street corner you’ll hear

Silver bells, silver bells

It’s Christmas time in the city

Ring-a-ling, hear them ring

Soon it will be Christmas Day

Strings of streetlights, even stoplights

Blink a bright red and green

As the shoppers rush home with their treasures

Hear the snow crunch

See the kids bunch

This is Santa’s big scene

And above all this bustle you’ll hear

Silver bells, silver bells

It’s Christmas time in the city

Ring-a-ling, hear them ring

Soon it will be Christmas Day

Soon it will be Christmas Day

Jingle Bells - Frank Sinatra

I love those J-I-N-G-L-E bells

Those holiday J-I-N-G-L-E bells

Those happy J-I-N-G-L-E B-E, double L-S

I love those J-I-N-G-L-E bells

Jingle bells, jingle bells

Jingle all the way

Oh, what fun it is to ride

In a one-horse open sleigh

Jingle bells, jingle bells

Jingle all the way

Oh, what fun it is to ride

In a one-horse open sleigh

Dashing through the snow

In a one-horse open sleigh

O’er the fields we go

Laughing all the way

Bells on bob-tail ring

Making our spirits bright

What fun it is to ride and sing

A sleighing song tonight

Jingle bells, jing-jingle bells

Jingle all the way

Oh, what fun it is to ride

In a one-horse open sleigh

I love those J-I-N-G-L-E bells

Those holiday J-I-N-G-L-E bells

Those happy J-I-N-G-L-E B-E, double L-S

I love those jingle bells all the way

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year - Andy Williams

It’s the most wonderful time of the year 
With the kids jingle belling
And everyone telling you “Be of good cheer” 
It’s the most wonderful time of the year 
It’s the hap-happiest season of all
With those holiday greetings and gay happy meetings 
When friends come to call 
It’s the hap- happiest season of all 

There’ll be parties for hosting 
Marshmallows for toasting 
And caroling out in the snow 
There’ll be scary ghost stories 
And tales of the glories of 
Christmases long, long ago 

It’s the most wonderful time of the year 
There’ll be much mistletoeing 
And hearts will be glowing 
When loved ones are near 
It’s the most wonderful time of the year 

There’ll be parties for hosting 
Marshmallows for toasting 
And caroling out in the snow 
There’ll be scary ghost stories 
And tales of the glories of 
Christmases long, long ago 

It’s the most wonderful time of the year 
There’ll be much mistletoeing 
And hearts will be glowing 
When loved ones are near 
It’s the most wonderful time 
It’s the most wonderful time 
Oh the most wonderful time 
Of the year

Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say

Snoopy’s Christmas - The Royal Guardsmen

O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum, 
Du kannst mir sehr gefallen! 

The news had come out in the First World War 
The bloody Red Baron was flying once more 
The Allied command ignored all of its men 
And called on Snoopy to do it again. 

Was the night before Christmas, 40 below 
When Snoopy went up in search of his foe 
He spied the Red Baron, fiercely they fought 
With ice on his wings Snoopy knew he was caught. 

Christmas bells those Christmas bells 
Ring out from the land 
Asking peace of all the world 
And good will to man 

The Baron had Snoopy dead in his sights 
He reached for the trigger to pull it up tight 
Why he didn’t shoot, well, we’ll never know 
Or was it the bells from the village below. 

Christmas bells those Christmas bells 
Ringing through the land 
Bringing peace to all the world 
And good will to man 

The Baron made Snoopy fly to the Rhine 
And forced him to land behind the enemy lines 
Snoopy was certain that this was the end 
When the Baron cried out, “Merry Christmas, mein friend!” 

The Baron then offered a holiday toast 
And Snoopy, our hero, saluted his host 
And then with a roar they were both on their way 
Each knowing they’d meet on some other day. 

Christmas bells those Christmas bells 
Ringing through the land 
Bringing peace to all the world 
And good will to man

Christmas bells those Christmas bells 
Ringing through the land 
Bringing peace to all the world 
And good will to man

The Christmas Waltz - Frank Sinatra

Frosted window panes, candles gleaming inside
Painted candy canes on the tree
Santa’s on his way, he’s filled his sleigh with things
Things for you and for me

It’s that time of year when the world falls in love
Ev’ry song you hear seems to say “Merry Christmas,
“May your New Year dreams come true”
And this song of mine in three-quarter time
Wishes you and yours the same thing, too

Frosted window panes, candles gleaming inside
Painted candy canes on the tree
Santa’s on his way, he’s filled his sleigh with things
Things for you and for me

It’s that time of year when the world falls in love
Ev’ry song you hear seems to say
“Merry Christmas, may your New Year dreams come true”
And this song of mine in three-quarter time
Wishes you and yours the same thing, too

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you.

Merry Christmas

Home For the Holidays - Perry Como

Oh! There’s no place like home for the holidays,
‘Cause no matter how far away you roam,
When you pine for the sunshine of a friendly gaze,
For the holidays you can’t beat home sweet home!

I met a man who lives in Tennessee, he was heading for,
Pennsylvania and some homemade pumpkin pie!
From Pennsylvania folks are travellin’
Down to Dixie’s sunny shore,
From Atlantic to Pacific,
Gee the traffic is terrific!

Oh! There’s no place like home for the holidays,
‘Cause no matter how far away you roam,
If you wanna be happy in a million ways,
For the holidays you can’t beat home sweet home!

Take a bus, take a train, go and hop an aeroplane,
Put the wife an’ kiddies in the family car!
For the pleasure that you bring when you make that doorbell ring,
No trip could be too far!

I met a man who lives in Tennessee, he was headin’ for,
Pennsylvania and some homemade pumpkin pie!
(Some pumpkin pie!)
From Pennsylvania folks are travellin’
Down to Dixie’s sunny shore,
From Atlantic to Pacific,
Gee the traffic is terrific!

Oh! There’s no place like home for the holidays,
‘Cause no matter how far away you roam,
If you wanna be happy in a million ways,
For the holidays you can’t beat home sweet home!

For the holidays you can’t beat home sweet home!
