Countdown to Christmas Day

It’s that time again… oh, it’s Christmas time… The oven’s on, the list is long, There’s wrapping paper where it don’t belong. The floor’s a mess, but that’s okay, We’ll make it shine by Christmas Day. The candles tilt, the lights won’t stay, But laughter keeps the stress away. I take a breath and smile, because — This chaos feels like Santa’s cause. It smells like sugar, love, and spice, The rush, the mess — it feels so nice. We’re tired, but happy — that’s okay, It’s almost Christmas Day! We’re counting down to Christmas Day, Through the crumbs and cabernet! The dishes pile, the songs replay, But everything feels right this way. No calm, no silence — that’s our way, It’s love and laughter on display. The house’s not perfect — that’s okay, We’re counting down to Christmas Day! The ribbons twist, the plans collapse, The table’s crooked, full of gaps. But every spark, each bit askew, Feels made with love — from me and you. I spill the punch, forget the cream, But life’s much better than the dream. We roll our eyes, then start to sing, And let the Christmas chaos ring! The scent of pine, the lights that fade, The warmth from all the love we’ve made. It’s not about the things we do, It’s how it feels — me and you. We’re counting down to Christmas Day, Through the crumbs and cabernet! The dishes pile, the songs replay, But everything feels right this way. No calm, no silence — that’s our way, It’s love and laughter on display. The house’s not perfect — that’s okay, We’re counting down to Christmas Day! Let the flour fall, let the oven hum, Let the joy be loud — let Christmas come! It’s not the shine that makes it glow, It’s the heart behind it — don’t you know? We’re counting down to Christmas Day, With the mess we made along the way. We laugh, we dance, we lose our plan, And start it over once again. No perfect postcard — that’s okay, We love this real and honest way. The house may fall apart, but hey — We’re counting down to Christmas Day! It’s Christmas time… it’s Christmas time…
