Under the Mistletoe Lights

Met you by the doorway

Coat still dusted white

Laughing with my sister

Didn’t see you in that light

You said

"Been a long year"

Pulled me in so slow

Suddenly the room blurred

All I felt was glow

Fireplace flickers on your cheek

Every little breath

I can barely speak

Is it just the season making me believe?

Or something here that we both need?

Under the mistletoe lights

I’m falling

Heart beating louder than the carols

You and me wrapped up

Wrapped up in December

If this is just one night

I’ll remember

Under the mistletoe lights

We’re golden

Hands on my waist

The world frozen

Kiss me like next year starts forever

Under the mistletoe lights together

Grandma on the old couch

Singing something off-key

Someone drops the cookies

Kids race round the tree

But it’s like we’re in a snow globe

You and me inside

Every little smile says

Stay another night

Snowflakes tapping on the glass

Maybe we’ve been dancing round this in the past

Is it just the season making me believe?

Or something here that we both need?

Under the mistletoe lights

I’m falling

Heart beating louder than the carols

You and me wrapped up

Wrapped up in December

If this is just one night

I’ll remember

Under the mistletoe lights

We’re golden

Hands on my waist

The world frozen

Kiss me like next year starts forever

Under the mistletoe lights together

Crowd sings along in the other room (oh-oh)

But all I hear is you

Say my name softer than the snow

Tell me

Is this new?

If we cross this line
