I'M GONNA BE WARM THIS WINTER
(Mark Barkan / Hank Hunter)


Connie Francis - 1962




We met at a ski lodge
And we fell in love.....
 
Right by a fireplace
We shared our first embrace 
And then inside my heart
I felt a fire start 
It's gonna snow outside
The weather will be cold 
But I'm gonna be wa-a-arm this winter
 
Uh-huh-huh!
 
Each time your lips touch mine 
They taste like sparklin' wine 
I feel so warm a glow 
Just 'cause I love you so 
It's cozy in your arms 
I'm yours to have and to hold 
And I'm gonna be wa-a-arm this winter 


Ice skating on a frozen lake 
Sleigh-riding down a mountainside 
Roastin' popcorn, dancin' till the dawn 
That was how I knew love was born-born-bo-orn
 
It's just like make-believe 
Each night is New Year's Eve 
Each day is Christmas Day 
You make me feel this way 
It's gonna snow outside
The weather will be cold 
But I'm gonna be wa-a-arm this winter


Uummm, ye-e-e-ah
(Instrumental Break) 


It's gonna snow outside
The weather will be cold 
But I'm gonna be wa-a-arm this winter 
Whoa, whoa, whoa, honey, make me warm this winter 
Mmmm, baby, make me warm this winter 
Whoa, whoa, whoa, I said make me warm........FADE
