Christmas Song

Somewhere a bell is ringing
Words that don’t quite fit are floating around
The cold feels so nice
I wonder why I’m falling in love

Singing about this and that, repeating it all
Maybe it’s the city shining so obviously

I think about you, but when I can’t see you, it hurts my heart
I’m trying to tell you what I think of you
It’s fine, I already know that
It’s no use asking Santa for anything

I wish you could be right here, don’t want you to go anywhere
I just want you to think about me all the time
But if I say something like that, it’ll sound lame
So I’ll keep it simple: I like you

The excited couples
With their reindeer antlers on
I can’t believe they can do that in public
No, I’m not jealous or anything

What’s a present that’ll make you happy?
What’s something only I can give you?

Even if the reply to "I love you" isn’t what I expected
That alone won’t make me hate you
I’m not one to wish on stars or anything
But in the end, I can’t stand not having you

Just meeting you back then, that’s all it took
To discover parts of myself I didn’t even know

I think about you every day, and I want you to know that
I’m searching for you in the crowd
I wonder if you’re laughing with someone else
It makes my heart ache deep inside

I wish you could be right here, don’t want you to go anywhere
I just want you to think about me all the time
But if I say something like that, it’ll sound lame
So I’ll keep it simple: I like you

I’ll say it as many times as it takes until you hear me: I like you.
