''Twas Love' was the opening track on Patti LaBelle's 'This Christmas' album which was released in 1990. It was one of 8 tracks written by the Philadelphia soul singer for the album and it showcased her astonishing vocal range. In fact such is the ferocity with which she hits some of the notes on 'Twas Love' it might be advisable to switch to paper cups for your mulled for its duration.

''Twas Love' is not exactly overplayed on the radio each December but for those looking for a classy alternative to all the throwaway jingle jangle and tinsel sonic's it is hard to beat.

 

`Twas Love Lyrics

Turn down the lights
Let the candles light inspire
A night that burns
With the flaming loves desire

As we open our gifts
Underneath our tree
I will think of
And remember

(Chorus)
Our first Christmas night
Under the pale moon light
Loving you felt so right
'Twas love
Kisses that melted snow
We don't need mistletoe
Eager to take it slow
'Twas love

I need your love
Like a shining star
To guide me
With each passing day
You shine your love on me

So brightly

As we celebrate loving
Throughout the year
I will think of
And remember

(Chorus X2)

I said we don't need no mistletoe
Baby, just take it slow
I need your love
We don't need no mistletoe
Babyboy just take it slow
