Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring-ting-tingling too
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling yoo-hoo
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you

Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, let's go
Let's look at the show
We're riding in a wonderland of snow
Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, it's grand
Just holding your hand
We're gliding along with a song of a wintery fairyland

Our cheeks are nice and rosy and comfy cozy are we
We're snuggled up together like two birds of a feather would be

Let's take that road before us and sing a chorus or two
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you

There's a Christmas party at the home of Farmer Gray
It would be the perfect ending of a perfect day
We'll be singing the songs we love to sing
Without a single stop
At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop

There's a happy feeling nothin' in the world can buy
When they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie
It will nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives
These wonderful things are the things we'll remember all through our lives
These wonderful things are the things we'll remember all through our lives

Our cheeks are nice and rosy and comfy cozy are we
We're snuggled up together like two birds of a feather would be

Let's take that road before us and sing a chorus or two
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you

Air Supply

Air Supply are a soft rock duo formed in 1975. From 1980-1985 the band had a string of hits that charted well in the US, Canada, New Zealand and their homeland Australia.

After Graham Russell’s music was ignored by bandmates in two previous bands, he auditioned for and won a part as a chorus member in a Melbourne production of Jesus Christ Superstar. This is where he met and teamed up with Russell Hitchcock, who had missed the JCS auditions in Sydney – so he flew to Melbourne and landed a spot in the same chorus.

The two submitted a demo of two songs – “Love And Other Bruises” and “If You Knew Me” to CBS Records and got signed. The former went to #3 in Australia, so they assembled session musicians, released their self-titled debut album, and toured Australia.
