CHRISTMAS IN CONNECTICUT WITH YOU
(PERFORMED BY STEVE TYRELL)

WRITTEN BY MINNIE MURPHY, CHARLES SHYER

I DON'T WANT MY HOLIDAYS IN FRISCO OR L.A.
I GOT TO SEE THE SNOW
AND IT'S CALLING ME BACK HOME

WHERE EVERY WINDOW ON THE STREET
HAS A BIG OLE LIT UP TREE
STRANGERS PASS YOU BY
WITH A TWINKLE IN THEIR EYE

PACK YOUR BAGS, I'LL BOOK A FLIGHT FOR A WEEK OR MAYBE TWO
GIMME NEW YEARS EVE IN NEW YORK AND CHRISTMAS IN CONNECTICUT WITH YOU

WON'T YOU RUN AWAY WITH ME
I KNOW YOU'LL NEVER WANNA LEAVE
THE SLOPES OF POWDER RIDGE OR SAKS FIFTH AVENUE
WE'LL TAKE A HORSE AND CARRIAGE RIDE
THROUGH A FANTASY OF LIGHTS
I'LL MAKE ALL YOUR WINTER WONDER DREAMS COME TRUE
GIMME NEW YEARS EVE IN NEW YORK AFTER CHRISTMAS IN CONNECTICUT WITH YOU

WON'T YOU RUN AWAY WITH ME
I KNOW YOU'LL NEVER WANNA LEAVE
MOHAWK MOUNTAIN DOWN TO GREENWICH VILLAGE TOO
THERE'S COZY CABINS WAY UP THERE
WE'LL SEE THE BALL DROP IN TIMES SQUARE
MAKING MEMORIES THAT'LL LAST THE WHOLE YEAR THROUGH
GIMME NEW YEARS EVE IN NEW YORK
AND CHRISTMAS IN CONNECTICUT WITH YOU
GIMME NEW YEARS EVE IN NEW YORK
AND CHRISTMAS IN CONNECTICUT WITH YOU
