Patrick Williams/Vince Gill 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!

Hey! It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I've brought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

And when we finally kiss good night
How I'll hate going out in the storm
But if you really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm.

The fire is slowly dying
Hey! and, Honey, we're still good-bying




But as long as you love me so,
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!...
