The middle of December ain't the time to be alone

It's just too close to Christmas

And too far to go home

I ran in to a friend of a friend

Standing in checkout line

She said, I've spent too much already

And there's gifts I just can't find

I walked her home and when she opened up her door

I'm not sure what happened then

Guess magic took it's course

Chorus:

Blame it on the mistletoe

'Cause what happened here nobody knows

How could something simple as a kiss

Change my holiday like this

And we held each other all night long

And we fell asleep to a Christmas song

Playin' on the radio

Blame it on the mistletoe

I woke up, she was wrappin' gifts beneath the tree

She said, I know it's early, so I thought I'd let you sleep

Then she insisted I get up and take a look outside

Hey sleepyhead, it must have snowed at least a foot last night

That's when I saw it hangin' up above my head

She threw her arms around my neck

Laughin' as she said

Repeat Chorus
