christmas time

V6

**(Tempo: 116 BPM. A bright, bouncy, and breezy 1987 synth-pop groove. Think the crystalline, high-register pop of early George Michael, Prince, or Jimmy Somerville. Light, airy, and purely romantic.)** **(Intro)** *(Bright digital sleigh bells, a snappy LinnDrum beat kicks in with a groovy slap-bass line)* *(High, airy, soaring male vocal - soprano/countertenor range)* Ooh, Christmas time... Yeah, yeah... **(Verse 1)** Frost upon the window, but I'm feeling fine Just a couple days to go, watching all the signs Got the tree all lit up, shining in the room Waiting for a miracle to chase away the gloom **(Pre-Chorus)** Then the telephone is ringing, sweet and clear Your voice is like an angel, ringing in my ear You said, "I'm in the city, let's make this night complete" Now I'm walking through the snow, feeling the heat! **(Chorus)** Oh, you came back to me, like a star in the snow! Lit up my December, let the good times flow! Just a couple days to Christmas, but the magic is real I’m falling in love again, and I know how I feel! *(Background vocals: Ooh, I know how I feel!)* Sharing Christmas together, yeah, we're catching the spark Lighting up the winter, glowing in the dark! **(Verse 2)** Met you by the fountain, you were wearing red Smiling like an angel, just like I said We walked beneath the lights, didn't say a word But the sweetest Christmas song is the one we heard **(Chorus)** 'Cause you came back to me, like a star in the snow! Lit up my December, let the good times flow! Just a couple days to Christmas, but the magic is real I’m falling in love again, and I know how I feel! **(Bridge)** *(Music strips back to just a pulsing synth and a soft finger snap)* Christmas morning sunlight, shining on your face I'm holding you so closely, in this warm embrace *(High, soaring falsetto run)* *Ooooh, my heart is beating faster!* **(Outro)** *(Upbeat groove returns, bright synth horns join in)* Forever and more... Walking through your door... Merry Christmas, baby... *(High, crystalline vocal ad-lib fading out)* *I'm falling in love again...* Yeah, yeah... *(Fade out on a bright, shimmering synth chime)*
