Christmas Eve came crashing down
Winter nights can be so long
I should be happy to be home right now
Instead of asking what went wrong
My Christmas gift was losing you And the friends I left behind
Home is where the heart is found
Christmas Eve has broken mine
The soul longs to feel its worth
So I struck out on my own
I followed a star to my hometown
Why do I feel so far from home
I don't wanna hold on to Christmas
Don't wanna hold on to you
Don't wanna hold on to Christmas
I wanna start something new
It's time I let go of Christmas
It's time I let go of you
If I can't let go of Christmas
I'll hafta sing these Christmas blues
The fire is so delightful
But I still feel winter's chill
A cold wind blows everywhere I go
I guess I still need time to heal
Been running towards a new day
Been dashing through the snow
You can't rewind, only run the clock
I'm not running anymore
If there's peace left on this earth
Please, let it begin with me
But if Christmas isn't in your heart
You won't find it beneath a tree
I don't wanna hold on to Christmas
Don't wanna go through that again
Don't wanna hold on to Christmas
I wanna find where I fit in
It's time to let go of Christmas
It's time to let go of you
If I can't let go of Christmas
I'll hafta sing these Christmas blues
