Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
Andy Borg Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh the weather outside is frightful
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
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

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!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Andy Borg's song "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" convey a cozy and romantic atmosphere amidst a winter storm. The first verse sets the scene with the weather outside being frightful, emphasizing the cold and possibly harsh conditions. However, the contrasting warmth of the fire creates a delightful and comforting ambiance. With nowhere else to be, the repetition of the phrase "Let It Snow!" expresses a sense of acceptance and surrender to the weather, almost embracing the snowfall.


The second verse continues to describe the snowstorm, indicating that it shows no signs of stopping. The mention of buying corn for popping suggests the enjoyment of indoor activities while being snowed in. Additionally, the lights turned down low create a cozy and intimate atmosphere, perfect for staying in and enjoying each other's company. This reinforces the theme of finding joy and comfort in the midst of the storm, rather than being bothered by it.


The third verse introduces a romantic element, with the anticipation of a goodnight kiss. However, the singer expresses hesitation about going out into the storm, highlighting the understandable reluctance to face the harsh conditions. But with the assurance of being held tightly by their partner, there is a sense of security and warmth that makes even venturing out into the storm more bearable. The lyrics evoke the idea that love can provide warmth and protection in difficult times.


The final verse shifts the focus back to the fire, which is slowly dying. It suggests that the evening or the night is coming to an end, and they must say their goodbyes. However, as long as their love remains strong, they can still find comfort and happiness regardless of the weather. The repetition of "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" becomes a symbol of their enduring love and their willingness to embrace whatever challenges may come their way. It signifies their determination not to let external circumstances dampen their spirits or their affection for each other.
