The Christmas Waltz/The Carpenters

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
Every 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

It's that time of year when the world falls in love
Every 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

@notellyearight1 When the build up to Christmas has taken me over, sipping my apperatif, the thought of the family sitting around the table - no better better music ever composed, played or sung as this contribution to mankind by the Carpenters

[notellyearight1]

@hommefriday I completely agree :) Did you know that Karen Carpenter had Perfect Pitch Vocally? Yup sure did! I was thinking, and wishing SO BADLY that I had their Christmas Album this year, but alas I didn't order it the last time I thought of it. :-\\

[WesleyTheSniper]

Sinatra's version is the best!

One of the best female singers that ever lived. I loved Karen's voice. I loved the Carpenters. I remember we had beautiful Christmas parties where I worked. It was an International Hotel and they gave the best parties. I was toasty and happy and preparing to go home. In my office I was singing this and one of the bosses walked up and said they had never heard a prettier song. I couldn't sing, personally but it's just a good memory that someone thought so. Peace and a Merry one!
