Winter Wonderland is a song from the sixth series about the winter holidays. It is based on the winter theme from the same season.
Lyrics
- This is the story of Thomas's winter wonderland.
- It's a winter wonderland
- See the snow lay all around
- Bells are ringing, Ding-a-ling-a-ling, Ding, dong
- Sleigh bells jingle
- Home for the holiday we go
- Rushing to our winter wonderland
- It's a winter wonderland
- Little engine working hard
- His snowplough heaving, Chug-a-chug-a-chug, Chug Choo
- Bother this silly snow!
- Don't hold me up, please don't delay
- Must get to my winter wonderland
- It's Thomas's winter wonderland
- Climb aboard and join us if you can
- See main line engines rushing to and fro
- Festive decorations, people rushing home
- Branch line engines circle through the snow
- Firesides blaze, through winter haze
- Happy holidays
- Look, everybody! There's Thomas.
- And Percy.
- And James and Gordon and Henry.
- And look! Edward and Toby, too!
- Home for the holiday we go
- Rushing to our winter wonderland
- It's Thomas's winter wonderland
- Climb aboard and join us if you can
- See Terence the Tractor clear away the snow
- Bertie Bus is wonderful. Just look at him go!
- Seasons greetings; Happy Holidays
- Close your eyes, dream your dreams
- See how the magic stays
- It's a winter wonderland
- See the snow lay all around
- Bells are ringing, Ding-a-ling-a-ling, Ding, dong
- Children singing
- Home for the holiday we go
- Rushing to our winter wonderland
- Our winter wonderland
- Our winter wonderland
