Let It Snow
Paul Brandt 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 brought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let is snow, let it snow, let it snow

When we finally kiss goodnight
How I hate going out in the storm
But if you really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm

Oh, the fire is slowly dying
And my dear, we're still goodbye-ing
As long as you love me so
Let it snow, let snow, let it snow

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

All the way home I'll be warm
All the way home I'll be warm

The fire is slowly dying
And my dear, I'm still goodbye-ing
As long as you love me so

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow




Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Overall Meaning

In Paul Brandt's rendition of Let It Snow, the lyrics paint a picture of a cozy night in with a loved one while a snowstorm rages on outside. The singer is grateful for the warmth of the fire and the company of their partner as they snuggle up together. The repeated refrain of "Let it snow" takes on a dual meaning - both as a wish for the snowfall to continue without abatement, and as a command to let go of worries and enjoy the moment.


As the snowstorm shows no signs of stopping, the singer reflects on their preparations for the night - in addition to the fire, they've brought along some corn to pop and set the lights down low to create a comfortable atmosphere. Though they dread venturing out into the storm, the singer finds comfort in their partner's embrace, knowing that they'll be warm as they make their way home.


As the fire slowly dies down and the night draws to a close, the singer laments having to say goodbye to their loved one. But as long as they're together and in love, they know they can weather any storms that come their way.
