You say Christmas is here but it all feels the same
It all comes and then goes in a day
I keep guessing and chasing and searching for reasons
Through the lights we string up for the season
Why can't it always be this way
It's not as if we change
People are fleeting but the heart don't stop beating
So why should we stop when it's done
Once all the good tidings are gone
We're kinder if just for the day
Why is it this way
Why can't it be this way everyday
Why can't it be this way always
The holidays should not make a difference
To understand is a commitment
We put trees in our house like we love them
Adorn them until we throw them away
Spend money on things we won't value in time
There is no such thing as mine
Why go into hiding with the good tidings
Why pretend this way
When we all can change
Why can't it be this way everyday
Why can't it be this way always
