(Verse 1)
Snowflakes on the window, city glowing low
You walk in like a secret only midnight knows
Sweater on your shoulders, smile like warm champagne
Baby, every little thing you do’s a holiday refrain
(Pre-Chorus)
Lights are soft and golden, heartbeat syncs with the tune
Close the door, pull me closer, let the world freeze in this room
I got stockings, I got candles, but what I need the most
Is your lips on mine, yeah, right beneath that ghost of green
(Chorus)
Kiss me under the mistletoe, babe, don’t let this moment go
Slow it down, hold me closer, in the glow of the snow
Lay a little love on me, let the season feel brand new
Kiss me under the mistletoe, babe, I only want you
(Verse 2)
Record on, it’s playing our favorite carol low
Your laugh paints the rafters in a warm and tender gold
Mistletoe hanging, swaying like a secret sign
Lean into my promise, let our hearts redesign
(Pre-Chorus)
Whisper all your wishes, I’ll keep every one of them safe
Kisses like confetti drop, sparkling on your face
No need for fancy presents, no need for midnight shows
Just the peace in your breathing and a little mistletoe
(Chorus)
Kiss me under the mistletoe, babe, don’t let this moment go
Slow it down, hold me closer, in the glow of the snow
Lay a little love on me, let the season feel brand new
Kiss me under the mistletoe, babe, I only want you
(Bridge)
Baby, let’s steal the night, let’s paint it red and gold
Turn the world to silver, by the stories that we hold
Under twinkling lights we’re timeless, wrapped in velvet and in truth
One kiss to start forever, I’m surrendering to you
(Breakdown)
Oh, babe, just one kiss — make it last through the year
Seal it with a promise whisper only we can hear
Hold me like you mean it, press the world out of sight
Mistletoe and moonlight, keep us warm tonight
(Chorus — Final)
Kiss me under the mistletoe, babe, don’t let this moment go
Slow it down, hold me closer, in the glow of the snow
Lay a little love on me, let the season feel brand new
Kiss me under the mistletoe, babe, I only want you
(Outro)
So come here, love, and stay low in this soft halo
Every season after this will start with one hello
Kiss me under the mistletoe, babe, and never let me go...
