Lyrics
Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh You left your red scarf on my kitchen chair Helped me hang the lights, then you hung up on us I saw you at the corner shop tonight Same old smile, snowflakes melting on your coat My heart says, go on, say hello But I know how this story goes I'm not waiting up this winter Porch light off, let the bells ring on I'm not waiting up this winter Keep the mistletoe, I'm done Oh, I'm not waiting up this winter Not this time, not for you I wrapped a watch in silver paper once Wrote forever on the tag in my best hand You were laughing with your friends on New Year's Eve While I was sweeping up the pine needles alone My heart says, go on, say hello But I know how this story goes I'm not waiting up this winter Porch light off, let the bells ring on I'm not waiting up this winter Keep the mistletoe, I'm done Oh, I'm not waiting up this winter Not this time, not for you Cocoa's warm, the radio's low Your scarf is in a box by the door Ooh, I'll mail it back with a card That says take care, and nothing more I'm not waiting up this winter Porch light off, let the bells ring on I'm not waiting up this winter Keep the mistletoe, I'm done Oh, I'm not waiting up this winter Not this time, not for you Not this time, not for you Ooh, ooh, ooh Not waiting up this winter
