Dear Santa, it's me writing
Tryna put into words
How the weight of the world just got to me
I just don't know who else to turn to
It's hard to admit
But I feel like a child right now

Finally, it dawned on me

With the snowflakes falling down
My footprints on the ground
Are fading with each breath I breathe
And the road that got me here
Has slowly disappeared
I'm lonely as a child can be
Now I don't wanna be
Alone on Christmas Eve

I remember, Christmas mornings
How we'd run down the stairs
Excitement in the air for what would be
Oh, how I wish I could go back in time
And relive all the memories
And moments that Christmas was to me

Now nothing else is what it seems
I'm letting go of childhood dreams

With the snowflakes falling down
My footprints on the ground
Are fading with each breath I breathe
And the road that got me here
Has slowly disappeared
I'm lonely as a child can be
Now I don't wanna be
Alone on Christmas Eve

No, nothing else is what it seems
I'm letting go of childhood dreams

With the snowflakes falling down
My footprints on the ground
Are fading with each breath I breathe
And the road that got me here
Has slowly disappeared
I'm lonely as a child can be

But there's snowflakes falling down
My footprints on the ground
Are fading with each breath I breathe
And the road that got me here
Has slowly disappeared
I'm lonely as a child can be
No, I don't wanna be
No, I don't wanna be
Alone on Christmas Eve
