Lyrics:
Let it snow, let it snow
Let it snow, let it snow
Hey, it's another Christmas holiday
It's a joyous thing let the angels sing
'Cause we're together
We got a thing here, can't let it slip away
Though outside it's rain and sleet
When our bodies meet...
I don't care 'bout the weather
Let it snow, let it snow
Outside it's cold but the fire's blazin'
So baby let it snow
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
Oh, come over here and help me trim the tree
I wanna wrap you up baby
Then you'll see you're the only present I need
There's so much more
Waiting for you in store
From this precious day
I can gladly say
There's no place that I'd rather be
And oh, you are my everything, come a little closer
God must have sent you down from heaven
Let it snow, let it snow
Outside it's cold but the fire's blazin'
So baby let it snow
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
Let it snow, let it snow
Let it snow baby, let it snow
I don't care about the weather baby
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
Let it snow
I don't care 'bout the weather baby
All I need you to do is be with me baby
Let it snow
As long as you're here with me
Let it snow
I don't mind, I don't mind
Let it snow
I don't care what the weather may be
As long as you're here with me

Lyrics:
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away (You gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (Special)
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance, but you still catch my eye
Tell me, baby, do you recognize me?
Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me
(Happy Christmas) I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying, "I love you", I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now, I know you'd fool me again
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away (You gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (Special)
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (Special, oh)
Oh, oh, baby
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My God, I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover but you tore me apart
Ooh-hoo
Now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away (You gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (Special)
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart (I gave you my heart)
But the very next day you gave it away (You gave me away)
This year, to save me from tears (Ohh)
I'll give it to someone special (Special)
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart (I gave you my heart)
A man under cover but you tore him apart
Maybe next year
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone special
Special
Someone
From everyone at Forest Fire Records, we wish you a happy holiday season, and a prosperous new year!
