**(Verse 1)**
Last night I crept down the staircase,
Hoping to see reindeer in the sky.
But what I saw beneath the mistletoe,
Sure made me rub my sleepy eyes.
**(Pre-Chorus)**
There was Mommy, standing oh-so-close,
With Santa in his big red coat.
His laugh was jolly, her cheeks were rosy,
Under the twinkling Christmas lights aglow.
**(Chorus)**
I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night,
Right there by the tree, oh what a sight!
She was laughing, he was beaming,
It felt like a magical dreaming,
When I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night.
**(Verse 2)**
He tipped his hat, gave a hearty "Ho, ho, ho!"
She whispered, "Shh! Don't wake the little ones."
I ducked behind the couch, hiding out of view,
Wondering what Santa Claus might do.
**(Pre-Chorus)**
But then he hugged her, like a long-lost friend,
The kind of hug that makes you grin.
And in the glow of the fireplace bright,
I knew everything was all right.
**(Chorus)**
I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night,
It's a Christmas memory that feels so right.
He's our hero, she's my mother,
Sharing laughter like no other,
When I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night.
**(Bridge)**
Now don't get me wrong, I'm not telling Dad,
Because Santa's a special kind of man.
And maybe, just maybe, if I'm good all year,
I'll get a surprise under the tree, right here!
**(Chorus)**
I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night,
It's a Christmas tale that fills me with delight.
In the magic of December,
It's a night I'll always remember,
When I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night.
**(Outro)**
So if you're peeking on Christmas Eve, beware,
You might just see something rare.
A little love, a little cheer,
The spirit of Santa's magic near.
I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night!
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
