Lyrics:

christmas used to mean
bright red and forest green
fresh apple pie to eat and hands to hold

but this years not the same
since you’re not in the frame
my winter holidays are extra cold

and carols that i loved
are sounding minor now because
you’re not right here to sing along
and this year, thats all i want

i used to love this season
but now i'm only freezing
cause without you, its always storming

though i don’t feel like smiling
just know that i’m still trying
to make it through this christmas mourning

and carols that i loved
are sounding minor now because
you’re not right here to sing along
and this year, that’s all i want

i’ll hold your flannel tight
bake cookies that you liked
and wish with all my might to go right back

to that winter in the Poconos
All bundled in our coats
Standing barefoot in to snow until we cracked

now the movies that’d we’d see
aren’t funny like they used be
cause you’re not here to laugh along
and this year that, that’s all i want

i used to love this season
but now im only freezing
cause without you, its always storming

though i don’t feel like smiling
just know that i’m still trying
to make it through this christmas mourning

outro
I’ll learn to love this season
For now I’ll keep on grieving
What can ya if it’s still storming

i’ll look back and remember
our favorite times together
to make it through this christmas mourning

[sabbyxsalem]

This is the only Christmas song I wouldn't mind listening to all year ☃️🎄😍

[KlausXD]

The text is so beautiful and true. Such a beautiful song it made me cry. 🤧❤

[vermiciousknid]

This song comes directly from her heart, you can tell. She's singing about someone very special who is now gone and has left only memories, both wonderful and very painful, as "Christmas gifts". Her song reminds me about all those I've loved and lost, how I miss them terribly, and how Christmas can be a treacherously difficult, bittersweet time of year.❤🥹

I like that in the description you put the lyrics because that way I can translate it into Spanish, I hope you never stop putting them 💞

Dear Salem and fans, Holiday Greetings! 🤶🏽

[ВладПффф]

О новый год
1 января, холодно
Одиноко
О новый год наступил, а я все ещё несчастен
Люблю свою жизнь, не поймите не правильно

[TarusYoung-]

Christmas Already get mad at Disney for this

[arunmusic]

The lyrics in this song hit so deep—love how Salem expresses emotions here. 🖤 Also love the modal interchanges in the song. Her voice is underrated. If you’re into songs with meaning, you might like my music too! Subscribe, promise you won’t regret it :)
