[Intro – Spoken/half-sung] Lights low, hearts high, Midnight on the dancefloor, snow in the sky. If you really wanna know what Christmas means to me… Turn the music up and feel it. [Verse 1] It’s not just lights on the houses, Not just gifts in a line, It’s laughing loud in a small room With the people that got me through time. It’s late-night talks in the kitchen, It’s stories we’ve all heard before, It’s feeling love in the silence When someone walks through the door. [Pre-Chorus] Every beat, every breath, every memory, Takes me back to the love that set me free. It’s not the things wrapped under the tree, It’s the ones who stand right here with me. [Chorus – Big, clubby, repeatable] This is what Christmas means to me, Not just a star on a frozen tree. It’s hands in the air with my family, Love in the room like a melody. This is what Christmas means to me, Hearts synced up to the same heartbeat. Feel that joy in the energy, Love, hope, faith on a four-on-the-floor beat. (Oh-oh, oh-oh, this is Christmas to me…) (Oh-oh, oh-oh, this is Christmas to me…) [Drop / Hook] Hands up high, let the love shine bright, We’re dancing in the glow of the Christmas lights. Bass so loud but my heart’s on key, ’Cause this is what Christmas means to me. [Verse 2] It’s calling friends I ain’t seen in years, Just to say “Hey, I’m glad you’re still here.” It’s finding peace in a crazy world, For a moment everything feels clear. It’s candles lit on the window, It’s hope when nights feel long, It’s knowing somehow we’re all connected, Every soul singing one song. [Pre-Chorus] Every beat, every breath, every memory, Takes me back to the love that rescued me. It’s not the snow or the silver and gold, It’s the warmth that never gets old. [Chorus] This is what Christmas means to me, Not just a star on a frozen tree. It’s hands in the air with my family, Love in the room like a melody. This is what Christmas means to me, Hearts synced up to the same heartbeat. Feel that joy in the energy, Love, hope, faith on a four-on-the-floor beat. (Oh-oh, oh-oh, this is Christmas to me…) (Oh-oh, oh-oh, this is Christmas to me…) [Bridge – breakdown, soft then building] When the lights fade out and the night gets cold, I still feel your hands that I used to hold. Every laugh, every tear, every memory, That’s the gift that Christmas gave to me. So DJ, don’t you let it end, Spin that hope around again. ’Cause every drop, every rise, every symphony, Feels like love wrapped up in a beat. [Final Chorus] This is what Christmas means to me, Not just snow in a movie scene. It’s hearts lit up like a laser beam, Love on the floor like a living dream. This is what Christmas means to me, You, me, us, and the energy. Turn it up, set our spirits free— Yeah, this is what Christmas means to me. (Oh-oh, oh-oh, this is Christmas to me…) (Oh-oh, oh-oh, this is Christmas to me…)
