(Verse 1)
Snow’s falling slow, the lights start to glow,
and suddenly your shadow crosses my mind.
I swore I’d moved on, I swore I was strong,
but Christmas has a way of pulling me back in time.
We laughed in the cold, your hands in mine,
we wrote our names in the frost on the windowline.
But promises fade like December nights,
and now you’re just a memory wrapped in lights.
(Chorus – catchy, 80s-feel)
This year at Christmas,
I won’t fall again for you.
Last time it hurt so much,
but now I finally see the truth.
This year at Christmas,
I’ll give my heart to someone new.
No more wishing, no more missing—
I’m letting go of you.
(Verse 2)
I still hear that song we danced to back then,
your laugh echoing through the winter wind.
I waited too long for a call that never came,
standing by the tree with your forgotten name.
And maybe you’re fine, or maybe you’re not,
but I won’t spend my holidays tied to old knots.
I’m done being quiet, done feeling small,
I’m finally breaking free of it all.
(Chorus)
This year at Christmas,
I won’t fall again for you.
Last time it hurt so much,
but now I finally see the truth.
This year at Christmas,
I’ll give my heart to someone new.
No more wishing, no more missing—
I’m letting go of you.
(Bridge – emotional, soft)
Love shouldn’t feel like waiting for a ghost,
like wrapping up dreams for someone who won’t show.
I’m turning the page, I’m stepping outside,
the world’s full of magic—this time it’s mine.
(Final Chorus – bigger & warmer)
This year at Christmas,
I won’t fall again for you.
I’m done with the heartache,
I’m finally seeing through.
This year at Christmas,
I’m giving my heart to something true.
No more crying, no denying—
I’m done with missing you.
