lyrics

So long, trying to do my best for so long
Living in a world that I don't recognise
What a time to be alive

Outside, the nights are getting colder
Outside, trying to find someone to hold you
Out there in the snow
As the city starts to glow

I apologise for getting sentimental
I'm only trying to be sincere
I guess there's nothing much left to say
Merry Christmas what a hell of a year
Merry Christmas what a hell of a year

Our time, we're so terrified of wasting our time
But I'm thankful for the chance to waste mine
It's a gift
Nothing else there, on my list

So hold on, something's got to change
And I hear, something kind of strange
Sleigh bells, in the air
Magic, everywhere

And I apologise for getting sentimental
I'm only trying to be sincere
I guess there's nothing much left to say
Merry Christmas what a hell of a year
Merry Christmas what a hell of a year

Stranger things have happened now
I wouldn't rule a reindeer out

So long, trying to do my best for so long
Living in a world that I don't recognise
What a time to be alive
