Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I've bought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
When we finally kiss goodnight
How I'll hate going out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm
The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still goodbying
But as long as you love me so
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
The lyrics of Andrew and the North American Grizzly's song, "Let The Snow Fall," captures the classic holiday scene of being cozy indoors with a loved one while a winter storm rages outside. It begins with the singer describing the frightful weather outside while acknowledging the delightful warmth of the fire indoors. The line "And since we've no place to go" highlights the sense of contentment being indoors brings, as long as they are together.
The second stanza describes how the snow is not showing any signs of stopping and the singer has prepared some popcorn in anticipation of being snowed in. The lights are turned down low to create a more intimate atmosphere. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the peacefulness and beauty in the snowfall.
The final stanza expresses the bittersweetness of having to say goodbye while acknowledging the comfort and warmth their love brings. The fire is dying, and they must depart into the storm, but they can endure as long as they have each other. The song perfectly encapsulates the feelings of being safe, warm, and loved during winter, with the snow acting as a comforting presence rather than a source of anxiety.

Is there a story behind why I can’t find this one song or album on BandCamp? This is a favorite for this time of year
Mike Mohr
I emailed the band to ask. In the meantime, it looks like there’s an instrumental version on their ‘Almost Maine’ album...
Mike Mohr
that’s a really great question. i uploaded it here because I can’t find it streaming anywhere else. I didn’t realize he didn’t even have it up on his bandcamp. Will look into it.
