Let It Snow
Steve Wingfield Band Lyrics
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 Steve Wingfield Band's Let It Snow is an interpretation of the classic Christmas song, which describes a warm and cozy winter evening spent with a loved one. The song speaks of a fierce winter storm with no signs of ending, yet the fire keeps them warm inside. The first stanza sets the scene for the evening, with the pounding winds and snow raging outside while the warmth of a lovingly lit fire crackles inside. As they have nowhere to go, they can enjoy the snowfall.
The second stanza is dedicated to the experience inside the home, with the sight of the flickering fire and the corn popping. The line "the lights are turned way down low" adds to the feeling of coziness, intimacy and stillness of the night. In the third stanza, the couple prepares to say their goodbyes, but they don't want to leave each other. The intense cold storm outside sets the tone for their goodnight kiss and sets the stage for them to hold each other tightly.
Finally, the couple embraces the warmth they share and how it will follow them through the storm. The song's tone is welcoming and tranquil, with a tinge of romantic tension. It is a perfect tune to play while sipping hot cocoa, curled up in warm blankets, in the presence of a special someone, while snowflakes cover the ground outside.

Oh the weather outside is frightful
The conditions outdoors are rather unpleasant
But the fire is so delightful
The ambiance inside by the fireplace is pleasant
And since we've no place to go
As there is no purpose in going out
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
It would be very welcome if it snowed instead
It doesn't show signs of stopping
The snow doesn't look to be stopping any time soon
And I've bought some corn for popping
I have made arrangements for indoor activities
The lights are turned way down low
The mood and ambiance are welcoming and warm
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
A desire for more snow to fall instead of other weather conditions
When we finally kiss goodnight
After spending some intimate time with one another
How I'll hate going out in the storm!
I dread having to go out in such unpleasant weather
But if you'll really hold me tight
If you comfort and hold onto me
All the way home I'll be warm
I'll feel warm and comfortable on our way back home
The fire is slowly dying
The fireplace is beginning to lose its warmth
And, my dear, we're still goodbying
We are still saying our goodbyes to one another
But as long as you love me so
As long as you continue to love and care for me
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
Snowfall would continue to be most desirable
