[Verse 1]
The windows in New York City
All dressed up with ribbons and smiles
Snow covers the park like a carpet
Bells on white carriages roll by in style
St. Patrick's cathedral is all lit up
When the doors open wide I can see
All of those candles burning inside
Looks like somebody's birthday party to me
[Chorus]
Snowy night
Catch the light
Shimmer bright
Angels sing
Here below
Children know
Faces glow
Bells they ring
Through a city of silver dreams
[Verse 2]
They hung a star over 5th Avenue
Like a beacon that's calling you home
With our gifts we come looking for comfort
May we find in each other we're not so alone
[Chorus]
Snowy night
Catch the light
Shimmer bright
Angels sing
Here below
Children know
Faces glow
Bells they ring
Through a city of silver dreams
[Bridge]
It's like this whole town has swallowed some magic
With a taxi horns singing away
They say that this city will change you
But it ain't me that's been changing
From what I can tell
[Chorus]
Snowy night
Catch the light
Shimmer bright
Angels sing
Here below
Children know
Faces glow
Bells they ring
Through a city of silver dreams
