ELIO PACE - What A Day (Bonus track from the album 'A Seat At My Table' 2011) 16 of 16

WHAT A DAY - Music by Elio Pace - Words by Elio Pace, Helen McNee & Matt Daniel-Baker

Hey look, the snow has settled all around
I hear the sweetness of a choir's sound
A crazy rush on Christmas Eve
And all the children can't believe
When the bells start to chime
That Santa will be right on time

What A Day, What A Day, the magic is here
What A Day, What A Day, been waiting all year
What A Day, What A Day
It's Christmas in that old fashioned way

Hey look, some more surprises on the tree
Turn on a classic movie on TV
The favourite songs you love to sing
With Frank and Elvis, Nat and Bing
There's a knock at the door
The party's gonna swing some more

What A Day, What A Day, the magic is here
What A Day, What A Day, been waiting all year
What A Day, What A Day
It's Christmas in that old fashioned way

And so let us drink to the memories in our hearts
We'll raise, raise a glass to you, near or far,
Wherever you are

With everyone we love so dear
Let's celebrate this time of year
And the bells start to chime
A very Merry Christmas time

What A Day, What A Day, the magic is here
What A Day, What A Day, been waiting all year
For stockings on the fireplace and candles all aglow
And we'll just keep on dancing underneath the mistletoe
What A Day, What A Day
What A Day, What A Day
What A Day, What A Day
That's Christmas in that old fashioned way

You won't find a better, more vibrant and cheerful song for Christmas anywhere! It's uplifting, gets you into the festive spirit and sticks in your head all day long! Well done, just one big question, why isn't it getting air time on National and local as well as on every shop and mall around the country?

[thomashoss18]
