1. Middle of December ain't the time to be alone
It's just too close to Christmas and too far to go home
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.

2. 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.
