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抳e 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      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抎 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      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
