Kiss Beneath the Mistletoe
Christmas country-pop song with a folksy 1960s feel: a relaxed, bouncy two-beat, a twelve-string guitar intro, a light orchestra, bells and a mixed chorus, with a warm, folksy male baritone. Cheerful and cozy, sung in English, about spreading holiday cheer and stealing a kiss under the mistletoe.
Lyrics
The wood is stacked beside the doorA little dusting on the floorI hear the kettle start to singIt’s time to do that winter thingPut a record on the player nowHang a ribbon from the cedar boughI’m baking cookies by the trayTo sweep those snowy blues awayPass the joy aroundKeep your feet on the groundLove is in the air tonightMistletoe, mistletoeDon’t you let me goKiss me by the candlelightMistletoe, mistletoeKiss me by the candlelightThe neighbor kids are throwing ballsThe neighbors deck their picket hallsI’ve got a sweater made of woolAnd a heart that’s feeling pretty fullWon’t you come and sit a whileLet me see that Christmas smileThere’s a sprig above the frameWaiting just to hear your namePass the joy aroundKeep your feet on the groundLove is in the air tonightMistletoe, mistletoeDon’t you let me goKiss me by the candlelightMistletoe, mistletoeKiss me by the candlelightOutside the wind is getting loudBut we don’t need a festive crowdJust a little luck and a sprig of greenThe sweetest sight I’ve ever seenPass the joy aroundKeep your feet on the groundLove is in the air tonightMistletoe, mistletoeDon’t you let me goKiss me by the candlelightMistletoe, mistletoeKiss me by the candlelight
