Christmas
Brighter Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It sometimes feels lost
Stranded alone
As darkness closed my eyes
And no one says goodnight

Shadows on the wall
As lonely as I felt, as you are
I need you as you are

Cold days spent in dusk
It didn't unfrost(?)
Wasting time is sad
Jealousy's a privilege

Shadows on the wall
As lonely as I felt, as you are
I need you as you are

As time runs by
And as they changed
Burning while is time(?)

As you are
I love you as you are




I need you as you are
I love you as you are
