It's that time of year again
A time that I don't understand
Wishing I wasn't afraid, I've come so close
What's this holiday about?
All this time, I've been hidin' out
Wonderin' if I'll ever know

Tell me now 'cause I don't understand
Help me out 'cause I don't get it yet
This isn't how it's supposed to be
I wanna know what Christmas really means
All the love and joy, I wanna see
'Cause it's always lost on me

So tell me, why does everybody love Christmas?
Why do we keep waiting up for Santa?
Tell me why we're falling for each other every season
Tell me, why does everybody love Christmas?
Why does everybody love Christmas?

My Christmas spirit almost gone
When suddenly, you came along
That's when I finally understood
Even when I feel alone
I'm with you and then I'm home
Finally feels like Christmas should

Now I think, I think I understand
You helped me out and now I'm getting it
You showed me how it's supposed to be
Now I know what Christmas really means
All the love and joy, I got to see
Now it's never lost on me

Now I know why everybody loves Christmas
Why we keep waiting up for Santa
I know why we're falling for each other, it's the season
I know why everybody loves Christmas
Why everybody loves Christmas
Why we keep waiting up for Santa
I know why we're falling for each other, it's the season
I know why everybody loves Christmas
