What Christmas Means To Me
CeeLo Green Lyrics

Candles burnin' low,
The ambience of dim-lit rooms created by candles on Christmas Eve.

Lot's of mistletoe.
The love and affection that coexists between all of us on this occasion.

Lot's of snow and ice,
The calmness and peacefulness that is associated with snow and ice.

Evey where we go.
The presence of the celebratory mood everywhere we go on this special day.

Choirs singin' carols,
The melodic sounds of choirs singing hymns of joy and good tidings.

Right outside my door.
The heartwarming sentiment of having carolers singing outside one's home.

All these things and more
All the small things and big events that come together to make Christmas a magical time,

(All these things and more)

That's what Christmas means to me my love
All of these experiences collectively define the true meaning of Christmas to the artist and his loved one.

(That's what Christmas means to me my love)

I see your smilin' face
The joy and happiness on the face of loved ones on this occasion.

Like I never seen before
The extraordinary nature of that joy and happiness.

Even though I love ya madly
Despite the intense and immense affection the singer already has for their loved one.

It seems I love you more
Their love grows even stronger and deeper every passing Christmas.

And little cards you give me
The act of exchanging cards signifies the mutual exchange of heartfelt feelings.

Will touch my heart for sure
The impact of that exchange on the artist's emotions is felt strongly.

I feel like runnin' wild
The excitement and the liveliness that comes with the celebrations of this day.

As angels and a little child
The innocent and pure nature of the celebrations reminds us of the baby Jesus and the angels that visited.

Greet you neath the mistletoe toe
The joy of meeting with loved ones and sharing that happiness beneath the mistletoe.

Kiss you once and then some more
The warmth of a kiss that signifies the love and closeness between the two individuals.

And wish you a Merry Christmas baby
The act of wishing each other good tidings and happiness on this day.

(Wish you a Merry Christmas baby)

And such happiness in the comin' year
The wish for sustained happiness and joy in the year to come.

Let's deck the halls with holly
The act of decorating one's surroundings with beautiful and festive decorations to enhance the mood and emotions of Christmas.

Sing sweet Silent Night
The calming and peaceful nature of singing songs of praise, especially focusing on the birth of Jesus.

Fill a sheet with the angel hair
Using decorations such as angel hair to keep the celebratory sentiment alive and continue that atmosphere till the very end.

And pretty, pretty lights
The vibrant and lively colors and lights that run throughout the day and enhance its overall atmosphere.

We'll go to sleep and wake up
The continuity of the celebrations, which lasts until the very end and through to the next morning.

Just before daylight
The celebration carries over into the next day, adding to the magic of the occasion.

Oh baby, all these things and more
The abundance of happiness, joy, and love that are present on this occasion.

(Oh baby, all these things and more)

That's what Christmas means to me my love
All of these experiences collectively define the true meaning of Christmas to the artist and his loved one.

(That's what Christmas means to me my love)

My baby that's what Christmas means to me
Acknowledging that this celebration of happiness and love is unique, and means a lot to the artist and their loved one.

(That's what Christmas means to me my love)
