[Verse 1] Snow on the sidewalks, lights in the trees Old songs on the radio, slow memories People rush past with their arms full of things But something feels louder in what no one’s saying There’s laughter in windows, shadows on walls Empty chairs at the table, names we still call The year left its marks, yeah, it took its toll But tonight there’s a feeling you can’t outgrow [Pre-Chorus] If you listen close in the quiet tonight There’s more than bells in the air [Chorus] If Christmas could talk, it’d say slow down You’re already enough right here, right now You don’t need gold or perfect days The best things never came wrapped anyway If Christmas could talk, it’d say hold on tight To the ones who made it through this year alive Love is the gift that never gets lost If Christmas could talk [Verse 2] Old photographs folded in worn-out hands Kids growing faster than anyone planned Same living room, but the years feel new Every scar tells a story you lived through Some dreams broke quietly, some stayed strong Some prayers took time, some felt gone But look around at the light you made Out of every dark December day [Pre-Chorus] There’s a warmth you can’t buy or replace It’s been here the whole time [Chorus] If Christmas could talk, it’d say slow down You’re already enough right here, right now You don’t need gold or perfect days The best things never came wrapped anyway If Christmas could talk, it’d say hold on tight To the ones who made it through this year alive Love is the gift that never gets lost If Christmas could talk [Bridge] (soft, then building) It’d say remember who you were Before the world got loud Before you learned to measure worth In numbers breaking down It’d say forgive yourself For everything you’re not You made it here, you made it through That means more than you thought [Key Change / Final Chorus] If Christmas could talk, it’d say look around This moment is holy, don’t miss it now The magic was never the lights or trees It was every heart that chose to believe If Christmas could talk, it’d say you belong Even when the nights felt cold and long Love is the gift that outlasts the cost If Christmas could talk [Outro] (quiet, intimate) So slow down You’re already home If Christmas could talk

If Christmas Could Talk
