An original Christmas song written and performed by Love Letters
lyrics
Warm is the flame that burns
Deep in my soul.
This year I feel I've earned
Your hand to hold.
I've got one request for you
This Christmas Eve.
Make everyone leave...
Meet me at the mistletoe-
Meet me in ten.
Say goodbye to everyone so
I can kiss my baby again.
We can snuggle up close in case
There's not enough wood in the fireplace.
Meet me at the mistletoe in ten.
Meet at the mistletoe-
It means nothing without you.
I've got some curtains to close
And maybe I can put on something new.
I feel bad turning off those lights
But a couple dozen candles feels so right.
Meet me at the mistletoe in two.
There's someone on the roof spreading Christmas cheer.
Santa Clause, get the heck up out of here!
Meet me at the mistletoe
I will! My solemn vow!
You've got an early gift my baby!
I think I know what you're talking about!
But what about these dirty plates!
Let it be, my baby for goodness sake!
Meet me at the mistletoe-
You know I don't care how.
Meet me at the mistletoe right now.

Featuring Lis Craft on fiddle. Mastered by Hugh Baldwin.
Every song on this album is an absolute masterpiece of songwriting and clever musicianship. "Michigan" is the most popular track, but our personal favorite is the self-titled track "Milk Carton Kid". Love Letters
Eclectic and truly deep stuff. Musically, his scattered percussion and horns are perfectly placed. Lyrically, songs "Backseat" and "Honey Jars" are wonderfully eerie. "Boys" is dirty awesomeness. Love Letters
If you don't know The Oh Hellos or their infectious track "Hello My Old Heart" you're just not listening to music the right way. This track and "Trees" are show-stoppers... Love Letters
