Verse 1 Lights on the porch don’t shine like they used to, Coffee tastes colder in this empty room. Your stocking’s in a box I can’t unpack, ’Cause everything in here reminds me you ain’t comin' back. Pre-Chorus I’m tryin’ but the truth hits hard and slow — Some things change, some never let go. Chorus December don’t feel the same without you, Every little moment pulls me back to what we knew. Tree lights flicker like they’re missin’ you too, And I keep hearin’ echoes of our old “I do.” Yeah, I’m holdin’ on, but it’s hard to get through — ’Cause December don’t feel the same without you. Verse 2 Neighbors are laughin’, kids playin’ in the snow, And I’m on this couch with a heart that won’t let go. Your favorite movie’s playin’ on TV, But the room feels bigger than it used to be. Pre-Chorus I’m wishin’ I could find a little cheer, But the joy gets thin when you ain’t here. Chorus December don’t feel the same without you, Every little moment pulls me back to what we knew. Tree lights flicker like they’re missin’ you too, And I keep hearin’ echoes of our old “I do.” Yeah, I’m holdin’ on, but it’s hard to get through — ’Cause December don’t feel the same without you. Bridge Maybe next year the hurt will fade, Maybe I’ll find peace in the mess we made. But tonight the truth is breakin’ through — Christmas feels empty without you. Final Chorus December don’t feel the same without you, Every quiet moment shines a different hue. I’ll keep your memory warm like the fire’s soft glow, But this house gets colder the more that I know: Yeah, some seasons heal, some cut right through — And December don’t feel the same without you.
