Letra:

[English]

Oh, yeah

Candles burnin' low

Lots of mistletoe

Lots of snow and ice

Everywhere we go

(Choir singin' carols)

Right outside my door

All these things and more (all these things and more)

That's what Christmas means to me, my love

(That's what Christmas means to me, my love) oh, yeah

Oh, yeah and ya know what I mean

I see your smilin' face

Like I never seen before

Even though I love ya madly

It seems I love you more

The little cards you'll give-me

Will touch my heart for sure

All these things and more, darlin' (all these things and more)

Whoa, that's what Christmas means to me my love

(That's what Christmas means to me, my love) oh, yeah

Oh, yeah

Ah, I feel like a runnin' wild (runnin' wild)

As an anxious as a-little-child

I greet you 'neath the mistletoe

Kiss you once and then some more

I wish you a merry Christmas baby (wish you a merry Christmas baby)

Whoa

And such happiness in the comin' year (happiness in the comin' year)

Oh, baby

Let's deck the halls with holly

Sing sweet silent night

Fill the tree with angel hair

And pretty, pretty lights

Go to sleep and wake up

Just before daylight

All these things and more, baby (all these things and more)

Whoa

That's what Christmas means to me, my love

(That's what Christmas means to me, my love)

Oh, baby, baby

...

Yeah

Candles burnin' low

Lots and lots of snow (alright)

Christmas bells are ringin'

Christmas choirs singin' (woo)

Christmas mistletoe

Oh, yeah

Haha, haha, haha

...

Gramática:

  • Candles burnin' low

    ➔ Elipsis (omisión de 'are')

    ➔ Esta es una forma abreviada de "Candles are burning low". El verbo auxiliar "are" se omite para un efecto más informal y poético.

  • Lots of mistletoe

    ➔ Cuantificador "lots of" + sustantivo

    "Lots of" indica una gran cantidad. Es seguido por el sustantivo "mistletoe".

  • Everywhere we go

    ➔ Adverbio "Everywhere" + Sujeto + Verbo (inversión omitida)

    ➔ La frase "Everywhere we go" enfatiza la ubicuidad de un sentimiento o una cosa. El orden de las palabras típico después de una frase adverbial como "everywhere" sería la inversión (Everywhere do we go), pero eso se omite en este caso.

  • I see your smilin' face

    ➔ Presente simple, gerundio como adjetivo ('smilin')

    ➔ El verbo "see" está en presente simple. "Smilin'" es un gerundio que se utiliza como adjetivo para describir "face". Es una forma abreviada de 'smiling'.

  • Like I never seen before

    ➔ Gramática incorrecta (seen en lugar de saw)

    ➔ Esta línea utiliza el participio pasado "seen" en lugar del pasado simple "saw". Si bien es gramaticalmente incorrecto, este es un uso común en el habla informal, particularmente en algunos dialectos.

  • Even though I love ya madly

    ➔ Conjunción subordinada "Even though" + cláusula (contraste)

    "Even though" introduce una idea contrastante. A pesar de que el hablante ama a alguien "madly", algo más está sucediendo.

  • It seems I love you more

    ➔ "It seems" expresión impersonal + cláusula

    "It seems" se usa para expresar una impresión o un sentimiento sin afirmar directamente un hecho. Introduce la cláusula "I love you more".

  • Will touch my heart for sure

    ➔ Tiempo futuro (will + verbo)

    "Will touch" expresa una acción futura. La frase "for sure" enfatiza la certeza de la acción.

  • I feel like a runnin' wild

    ➔ Gramática informal: "runnin'" en lugar de "running"; "like" utilizado para expresar un sentimiento o comparación.

    ➔ Esta línea utiliza la contracción informal "runnin'" en lugar de "running". La frase "feel like" expresa un sentimiento o sensación similar a correr salvajemente. Indica una sensación de emoción y libertad.
