Nothing looks pretty as The winter stars a-glittering Shining on the freshly fallen snow When the blue light of the moon Is giving off a loving winterglow Such a tender feeling when The candlelight a-flickering In the window calls you home And the fireplace is crackling Giving off a warming winterglow Summer with its nights that Last forever has its charm Fall the golden leaves that gather, too Spring is all the brighter after April storms have flown But winter has a magic of its own Nothing looks pretty as The winter stars a glittering Smiling on the two of us below And you rise like a child again Giving you a loving winterglow Such a tender feeling when The candlelight a-flickering In the window calls you home And the fireplace is crackling Giving off a warming winterglow When the blue light of the moon Is giving off a loving winterglow And you rise like a child Giving you a loving winterglow

Please, take me back to Toyland (Toyland) Everyone's happy there It's more than a girl and boy land Where dreams just like toys can be shared If you believe in Toyland (Toyland) Believe in things that you cannot see All the world would become a joy land What a wonderful world it would be If you believe in Toyland (Toyland) Believe in things that you cannot see All the world would become a joy land What a wonderful world it would be

Give me old fashioned Christmas, an old fashioned Christmas Family faces, wide open spaces, covered with snow Right now my mom’s there in the kitchen, basting the Christmas bird You'll have to take my word, you can't find that at the automat An old fashioned fireplace, give me an old fashioned fireplace My heart remembers smoldering embers, warming your glow I'd trade that whole Manhattan skyline, the shimmering steel and chrome For one old fashioned Christmas back home Right now my mom’s there in the kitchen, basting the Christmas bird You'll have to take my word, you can't find that at the automat An old fashioned fireplace, give me an old fashioned fireplace My heart remembers smoldering embers, warming your glow I'd trade that whole Manhattan skyline, the shimmering steel and chrome For one old fashioned Christmas back home Back home Back home

Should auld acquaintance be forgot And never brought to mind Should auld acquaintance be forgot For days of auld lang syne For auld lang syne, my dear For auld lang syne We'll take a cup of kindness yet For days of auld lang syne And here's a hand, my trusty friend And give a hand to thine We'll take a cup of kindness yet For auld lang syne For auld lang syne, my dear For auld lang syne We'll take a cup of kindness, dear For auld lang syne Though the distance separates I look toward the time When peace returns, we’ll sing again Like days of auld lang syne For auld lang syne, my dear For auld lang syne We'll take a cup of kindness, yet For days of auld lang syne We'll take a cup of kindness, yet For days of auld lang syne

Have yourself a merry little Christmas Let your heart be light Next year all your troubles will be out of sight Have yourself a merry little Christmas Make the Yuletide gay From now on our troubles will be miles away Once again as in olden days Happy golden days of yore Faithful friends who are dear to us Gather near to us once more Through the years we all will be together If the fates allow Hang a shining star above the highest bough And have yourself a merry little Christmas now Here we are as in olden days Happy golden days of yore Faithful friends who are dear to us Gather near to us once more Someday soon we all will be together If the fates allow Until then we’ll have to muddle through somehow So have yourself a merry little Christmas now

about

Acclaimed singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Grant-Lee Phillips has unwrapped a new gift for the Christmas season: an EP of Americana-crooning holiday tunes, titled Yuletide. The EP showcases Phillips' original "Winterglow" (popularized by his Town Troubadour character on Gilmore Girls) and some covers that Grant breathes new life into, such as Nat King Cole's "Take Me Back to Toyland" and Frank Sinatra's "An Old-Fashioned Christmas." The holiday doesn’t end at Christmas, however, as Grant puts a spin on the New Year's staple "Auld Lang Syne," adding a topical new verse to inspire hope towards days of peace.
