Sleigh Ride Sweetheart

[Verse 1] Grabbed your mittens, hollered "come on!" Two coats on and the porch light gone Bells are strung on the harness tight Old brown mare's kicking up the white [Verse 2] You slid in close, we shared one blanket wool Your cheeks went pink and the moon hung full Told the driver "take the long way round" You laughed so loud it shook the snow down [Pre-Chorus] And every bump throws you against my arm Ain't complaining, girl, you keep me warm [Chorus] Ride, ride, ride, my sleigh-ride sweetheart Faster down the hill, oh don't you dare let go Ride, ride, ride, and cross my frozen heart I never wanna reach the bottom of this road Whoa-oh, ride! [Verse 3] Snowflakes catching in your fallen curl I could kiss you or I could kiss the world But the bell says slow and the hill says fast So I'll hold your hand and make the moment last [Pre-Chorus] And every turn spins your scarf my way Lord, I'd take a thousand more today [Chorus] Ride, ride, ride, my sleigh-ride sweetheart Faster down the hill, oh don't you dare let go Ride, ride, ride, and cross my frozen heart I never wanna reach the bottom of this road Whoa-oh, ride! [Bridge] Then you leaned in near the bottom rail Whispered "keep it, mister, this ain't for sale" Well the mare came home but I stayed behind 'Cause the ride's over, girl — but you still got mine [Chorus] Ride, ride, ride, my sleigh-ride sweetheart Bells still ringing though we're standing in the snow Ride, ride, ride, you cracked my frozen heart And I found the reason I don't wanna let this go Whoa-oh, ride! [Outro] Ring 'em, ring 'em, sleigh-ride sweetheart Best cold night this town has ever known
