The Christmas Song Lyrics

So with the lights down i'll be waiting
all alone with my records playing
a lonely song on this lonely
christmas eve
late december never seemed so cold
in new jersey
its so hard to feel anything in the spirit of everything
so i won't bother hanging up
these decarations
all the lights we wrappe on the christmas tree
are tangled next to the mess you made out of me
(i promise i will hang them up next year)

this holiday doesn't mean anything anymore
'cause we're all alone anymore
this holiday doesn't mean anything anymore
'cause we're all alone anymore

So with the lights down i'll be waiting
all alone with my records playing
goodby sky harbor all night
on this christmas eve night
with the cards that i never sent
the holiday wishes i never meant
i never meant

this holiday doesn't mean anything anymore
'cause we're all alone anymore
this holiday doesn't mean anything anymore
Cause we're all alone anymore

this holiday doesn't mean anything anymore
'cause we're all alone anymore
this holiday doesn't mean anything anymore
'cause we're all alone anymore

this holiday doesn't mean anything anymore
'cause we're all alone anymore
this holiday doesn't mean anything anymore
Cause we're all alone anymore

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
