Underneath the Mistletoe Lyrics By Sia

Though Everyday Is Christmas is her first Christmas album, Sia’s past lyrics have often spoken of difficult romances and the narrative of “Underneath the Mistletoe” appears to be no different. In this particular song, the songwriter accurately depicts the sadness of being away from someone she has strong feelings for, although some ambiguity remains about whether or not the other person shares those same sentiments. Especially since she refers to them as “a crush.”

This song could very well be a reference to her first boyfriend that was run over and subsequently passed away in 1997.

[Verse 1]
I’ve got a crush, la la la la la la
Like a school girl
And I wanna rush, la la la la la la
Like a fool would
So, step on the gas, la la la la la la
Come on over
‘Cause babe it’s Christmas, la la la la la la
I wanna know ya

[Pre-Chorus]
Run to me, run to me through the white night
‘Cause I adore ya
Run to me, run to me through the white night
I’m waiting for ya

[Chorus]
It’s Christmas time, so run for your life
Oh, Hallelujah
A snowy night, a woman on fire
I’m waiting for ya
So, here we go under the mistletoe
Oh, I adore ya
A snowy night, a woman on fire
Oh, Hallelujah

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, you and me here, underneath the mistletoe (Oh)
You and me here, underneath the mistletoe (Oh)
You and me here, underneath the mistletoe (Oh)
Under the mistletoe
Oh, you and me here, underneath the mistletoe (Oh)
You and me here, underneath the mistletoe (Oh)
You and me here, underneath the mistletoe (Oh)
Under the mistletoe

[Verse 2]
Kiss me ’til dawn, la la la la la la
Hold me close now
You’ll keep me warm, la la la la la la
Keep the ghosts out

[Pre-Chorus]
Run to me, run to me through the white night
‘Cause I adore ya
Run to me, run to me through the white night
I’m waiting for ya

[Chorus]
It’s Christmas time, so run for your life
Oh, Hallelujah
A snowy night, a woman on fire
I’m waiting for ya
So, here we go under the mistletoe
Oh, I adore ya
A snowy night, a woman on fire
Oh, Hallelujah

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, you and me here, underneath the mistletoe (Oh)
You and me here, underneath the mistletoe (Oh)
You and me here, underneath the mistletoe (Oh)
Under the mistletoe
Oh, you and me here, underneath the mistletoe (Oh)
You and me here, underneath the mistletoe (Oh)
You and me here, underneath the mistletoe (Oh)
Under the mistletoe
