Origineel
[Verse 1: Owl City]
Build a snowman with the wind at his back
Got the day planned and presents to wrap
Fight the wind chill with all of my friends
Because it’s Christmas time again
Going downtown and spreading good cheer
Handing gloves out when we volunteer
For the children, greeting from ear to ear
Singing Christmas time is here
[Verse 2: tobyMac]
And everybody’s like ha, ha, ha, ho, ho, ho
Four wheel driving through the snow
Fighting the cold with some hot coco
Grab your grandma, to the mall we go
And there’s a man outside with a bucket and a bell
Wants to go home with a story to tell
And he’s reminding us
That his Christmas got nothing to do
And if a boy himself sings like
[Pre-Chorus: tobyMac]
Light of Christmas shining through
Our eyes, our smiles, you know we could
Shine on through
The good that we do for the people that don’t have it so good
[Chorus: Owl City]
Light me up and I’ll show you the way
Every year can’t wait for Christmas day
Light me up, I finally figured out
What Christmas is all about
Oh oh, oh oh oh [x2]
[Verse 3: Owl City]
Here’s a gift card for your new winter coat
Because the backyard is covered with snow
And the sleigh rides, they don’t cost a cent
Yeah, it’s Christmas time again
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge: Owl City]
Do you hear the sound?
A thousand angels are singing out
To God Almighty we’re bowing down
And that’s what Christmas is all about
(2x)
[Chorus]
And everybody’s like
[Pre-Chorus]
[Outro: Owl City & tobyMac]
Light me up, I finally figured out
What Christmas is all about
(For the people that don’t have it so good)
I finally figured out
What Christmas is all about
Vertaling
[Verse 1: Owl City]
Build a snowman with the wind at his back
Got the day planned and presents to wrap
Vecht tegen de wind met al mijn vrienden
Omdat het weer kersttijd is
Going downtown and spreading good cheer
Handschoenen uitdelen als we vrijwilligerswerk doen
Voor de kinderen, groeten van oor tot oor
Singing Christmas time is here
[Verse 2: tobyMac]
And everybody’s like ha, ha, ha, ho, ho, ho
Four wheel driving through the snow
Fighting the cold with some hot coco
Grab your grandma, to the mall we go
And there’s a man outside with a bucket and a bell
Wil naar huis met een verhaal te vertellen
En hij herinnert ons eraan
Dat zijn Kerstmis niets te doen heeft
En als een jongen zelf zingt als
[Pre-Chorus: tobyMac]
Light of Christmas shining through
Onze ogen, onze glimlach, je weet dat we konden
Shine on through
The good that we do for the people that don’t have it so good
[Chorus: Owl City]
Light me up and I’ll show you the way
Every year can’t wait for Christmas day
Light me up, I finally figured out
What Christmas is all about
Oh oh, oh oh oh [x2]
[Verse 3: Owl City]
Hier is een cadeaubon voor je nieuwe winterjas
Want de achtertuin is bedekt met sneeuw
And the sleigh rides, they don’t cost a cent
Yeah, it’s Christmas time again
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge: Owl City]
Hoor je het geluid?
Duizend engelen zingen het uit
Voor God Almachtig buigen we
And that’s what Christmas is all about
(2x)
[Chorus]
And everybody’s like
[Pre-Chorus]
[Outro: Owl City & tobyMac]
Light me up, I finally figured out
What Christmas is all about
(For the people that don’t have it so good)
I finally figured out
What Christmas is all about
