A sad Christmas song with a happy ending. Billy Gilman and his manager Angela Bacarri Lorenzo, fell in love with this one and he had it on hold for his Xmas Cd, unfortunately his producer thought the storyline was a little too contemporary to fit in

Story behind the song
Inspired by a tragic family event that I read about in our local newspaper over the holidays one Christmas.
Lyrics
Mistletoe From Heaven (C) Colleen Laylon, BMI, 2010 All Rights Reserved Vocals by ValerieLynn McClendon V1 Boxes lined our hallway, that cold December day I held my brother Tommy, as tears streamed down his face he said, "I'll be good I promise", Daddy gave him one last kiss silently we stood and waved as Daddy drove away V2 Mama peeked through the white sheers, shedding only one brave tear watched as Daddy's tail lights, slowly disappeared she said, "God it's almost Christmas, how will we all adjust?" whispered, "don't you worry Dear, Santa's coming here" Bridge On red construction paper, I wrote my Christmas list Oh I believe in Angels, and I only have one wish I need Mistletoe From Heaven, to hang on Mommy's door so when Daddy comes to visit, they won't fight anymore V3 Mama read what I wrote, then called Daddy on the phone we pretended not to listen, when she asked him to come home heard her say," I need you too and the kids are missing you" my heart was filled with brand new hope, as she read my Christmas note Instrumental Bridge V4 I woke up Christmas morning, ran to our front porch there was Mistletoe From Heaven hanging right above our door when Daddy came by later I got my Christmas wish under the Mistletoe From Heaven he gave my Mommy a kiss Tag Under the Mistletoe From Heaven he gave my Mommy.............. a............. kiss...........
