[Verse 1] A is for the angel hanging crooked on the wall, B is for the blanket where we crash when evenings fall. C is for the candles melting slower than the day, D is for the dishes that we'll wash… but not today. [Pre-Chorus] We don't spell it perfectly, but it still reads "family". [Chorus] A-B-C, that's enough for me, A-B-C, that's enough for me. Not the fairy tale, just what is real, A-B-C, that's how Christmas feels. [Verse 2] E is every error we wish we could erase, F is for forgiveness showing up without a trace. G is for the greeting to the stranger at the door, H is for the hope that sometimes hurts a little more. [Pre-Chorus 2] We don't say it perfectly, but it still sounds "stay with me". [Chorus] A-B-C, that's enough for me, A-B-C, that's enough for me. Not the perfect tree, just who showed up, A-B-C, that's enough, enough. [Bridge] O is for the open chair you keep beside the light, P is for the person that you wish would come tonight. Some letters we skip, some we can't say, but the ones we've got still spell "okay". [Final Chorus] A-B-C, that's enough for me, A-B-C, that's enough for me. Crooked angel, melted candle, dishes in the sink, A-B-C, more than you think. A-B-C, that's enough for me, A-B-C, that's enough for me. If you made it here, you've done enough, A-B-C, that's called love. [Outro – spoken, soft] You don't need the whole alphabet. A, B, C. Here, trying, together. That's the only spelling that counts.
