Let It Snow
JAFREEST ft. Frank Sinatra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But the fire is so delightful
Since we've no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
It doesn't show signs of stoppin'
And I've brought some corn for poppin'
The lights are turned down low
When we finally kiss goodnight
How I'll hate goin' out in the storm
But if you'll really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm
The fire is slowly dyin'
And, my dear, we're still goodbyin'
As long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
He doesn't care if it's ten below
He's sittin' by the fire's cozy glow
He don't care about the cold and the winds that blow
He just says, "let it snow, let it snow, let it snow" (let it snow)
"Ooh wee," goes the storm
Why should he worry when he's nice and warm?
His gal by his side and the lights turned low
He just says, "let it snow, let it snow" (I don't care)
The weather outside is frightful
But that fire is, mmm, delightful
Since we've no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
It doesn't show signs of stoppin'
And I've brought lots of corn for poppin'
The lights are way down low
So let it snow, let it snow, let it snow (let it snow)
When we finally say goodnight
How I'll hate goin' out in the storm
But if you'll only hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm
The fire is slowly dyin'
And, my dear, we're still goodbyin'
As long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

The second verse retells the lack of stopping in the snowfall and bringing some corn for popping while the lights are low. The singer is warm and cozy inside and wants to let the snow continue as it is.

However, the singer would love to go out into the storm if he or she could be held tight all the way home. The fourth and final verse repeats the idea of warmth and love being the key factors to let it snow. The fire is slowly dying, yet the singer is still saying goodbyes since the warmth of the love of one's life makes it comfortable and peaceful inside.

The lights are turned down low
The lights are dimmed to create a cozy and relaxing environment

When it's time to say goodnight and leave, it will be sad to go out into the bad weather
How I'll hate goin' out in the storm

The fire is slowly dyin'
The once warm and comforting fire is slowly sputtering out
And, my dear, we're still goodbyin'

As long as you love me so
As long as we have love for each other, we can weather any storm and enjoy the simple pleasures of life like watching the snow fall
