Song Lyrics

Windows in New York City
All dressed up with ribbons and smiles
Snow covers the park like a carpet
And bills on white carriages roll by in style

St. Patrick's cathedral's a riddle
When the doors open wide I can see
All of those candles burning inside
Looks like somebody's birthday party to me

Snowy night, catch the light, shimmer bright
Angels seen
Here below, children know, faces grow
Bells they ring
Through a city, of silver dreams

They hung a star over 5th avenue
Like a beacon, it's calling you home
With our gifts we come looking for comfort
May we find in each other we're not so alone

Snowy night, catch the light, shining bright
Angels seen
Here below, children know, faces grow
Bells they ring
Through a city, of silver dreams

It's like this whole town is swallow
It's amazing
With a taxi horn singin' Noel
They say that this city will change you
But it ain't me that's been changing
From what I can tell

Snowy night, catch the light, shining bright
Angels seen
Here below, children know, faces grow
Bells they ring
Through a city
Through a city
So pretty
In this city, of silver dreams
