There are Christmas lights strung across my bedroom
and candles lit in the corner
the atmosphere this year is new
as the evergreen scent lingers
My puppy's wearing antlers and her tail is wagging wide
Even though the outdoors are bitter cold
We're all snuggling warm inside
There are marshmallows in my mug
In my cozy socks, my feet are snug
And I'm dancing like I've never been more alive
I'm too happy for it to even hide
They say it's the most wonderful time of the year
I've not always known it to be true
Though this year I'm full of cheer
I've had merry days be blue
But this time my smile hurts
for I've been smiling too long
I suddenly seem to lose myself
in a Christmas song
Oh how I deeply love this Christmas new
It's cheerier this way
I deeply wish upon all else,
you have a Merry Christmas day
