[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

Grammaire:

  • Candles burnin' low

    ➔ Ellipse (omission de 'are')

    ➔ Ceci est une forme abrégée de "Candles are burning low." L'auxiliaire "are" est omis pour un effet plus informel et poétique.

  • Lots of mistletoe

    ➔ Quantificateur "lots of" + nom

    "Lots of" indique une grande quantité. Il est suivi du nom "mistletoe".

  • Everywhere we go

    ➔ Adverbe "Everywhere" + Sujet + Verbe (inversion omise)

    ➔ L'expression "Everywhere we go" met l'accent sur l'omniprésence d'un sentiment ou d'une chose. L'ordre des mots typique après une locution adverbiale comme "everywhere" serait l'inversion (Everywhere do we go), mais cela est omis dans ce cas.

  • I see your smilin' face

    ➔ Présent simple, gérondif comme adjectif ('smilin')

    ➔ Le verbe "see" est au présent simple. "Smilin'" est un gérondif utilisé comme adjectif pour décrire "face". C'est une forme abrégée de 'smiling'.

  • Like I never seen before

    ➔ Grammaire incorrecte (seen au lieu de saw)

    ➔ Cette ligne utilise le participe passé "seen" au lieu du passé simple "saw". Bien que grammaticalement incorrect, c'est un usage courant dans le langage informel, en particulier dans certains dialectes.

  • Even though I love ya madly

    ➔ Conjonction de subordination "Even though" + proposition (contraste)

    "Even though" introduit une idée contrastée. Bien que l'orateur aime quelqu'un "madly", quelque chose d'autre se produit encore.

  • It seems I love you more

    ➔ "It seems" expression impersonnelle + proposition

    "It seems" est utilisé pour exprimer une impression ou un sentiment sans énoncer directement un fait. Il introduit la proposition "I love you more".

  • Will touch my heart for sure

    ➔ Futur simple (will + verbe)

    "Will touch" exprime une action future. La phrase "for sure" souligne la certitude de l'action.

  • I feel like a runnin' wild

    ➔ Grammaire informelle : "runnin'" au lieu de "running" ; "like" utilisé pour exprimer un sentiment ou une comparaison.

    ➔ Cette ligne utilise la contraction informelle "runnin'" au lieu de "running". L'expression "feel like" exprime un sentiment ou une sensation similaire à la course sauvage. Elle indique un sentiment d'excitation et de liberté.
