The sun is shining The grass is green The oranges, the palm trees sway There's never been such a day In beverly hills, la But it's december, the twenty-fourth And i'm longing to be up north I'm dreaming of a white christmas Just like the ones i used to know Where the treetops glisten And children listen To hear sleigh bells in the snow I'm dreaming of a white christmas With every christmas card i write May your days be merry and bright And may all your christmases be white I'm dreaming of a white christmas With every christmas card i write May your days be merry and bright And may all your christmases be white
