From the recording Merry Nutcracker Christmas
Verse 1 and 2 melody come directly from Tchaikovsky's scene 9, Waltz of the Snowflakes, in his Nutcracker Suite. I wrote the rest of the song pretending I'm co-writing with him in our working session.
Lyrics
A tutu, tiara, wand for each hand
I'm a snow maiden, dancing in this place
Now let it snow let it fall as planned
Glittering flakes falling on my face
I'm dancing on pointe, jumping all round
I smile while flying' the world is my stage
My graceful manners in sync with the sound
'Cause my life is made for dancing ballet
Twenty-four flakes in a scene that’s so famous
The fantasy feels real in the pine forest
Snow queen and king bouncing in glistering bling
We're leaping non-stop to the music unleashing the
Snowflake wonderland
Snowflake wonderland
Snowflake wonderland
Snowflake wonderland
My family's dressed nicer in the theater tonight
You're bringing me cheer in the very next chair
I spin like a top when you pop out a smile
Then our eyes lock and I know that you care
You’re my guide and pride,
Always on my mind, with me everywhere
Rain, shine, day or night
This sweet Christmas dance is a keepsake we share
Twenty-four flakes in a scene that’s so famous
The fantasy feels real in the pine forest
Snow queen and king bouncing in glistering bling
We're leaping non-stop to the music unleashing the
Snowflake wonderland
Snowflake wonderland
Snowflake wonderland
Snowflake wonderland
It’s not the fancy tree, that enchants me
That delights and excites me it's the graceful snowflakes
It's not the fight scene that ignites me
That fulfills and thrills me it's the playful snowflakes
Every year who sets me free is the snow maiden
No ballet show's got the dough like the snow blizzard
Humbled, 'n amazed by this breathtaking vision
What a perk to take the perfect picture of the
Snowflake wonderland
Snowflake wonderland
Snowflake wonderland
Snowflake wonderland
Snowflake wonderland
Snowflake wonderland
Snowflake wonderland
Snowflake wonderland
