You Are Not Alone
Jason Chan Lyrics

Time flies so fast
The quick passing of time is constantly noticeable and reminds us of how quickly life moves.

I remember crystal clear
The author recollects past experiences with great clarity and detail.

Last December Christmas eve
The time of this memory was on a Christmas Eve in December.

Was nearly time to uncover all the gifts
Gifts were wrapped, waiting to be unwrapped in anticipation of Christmas morning.

That were underneath the tree
The gifts were located underneath the Christmas tree.

Turned off the lights that were glowing
The lights in the room were turned off, creating a sense of peace and comfort within the space.

It was time we were going up to sleep
It was late enough in the night that it was time to head to bed, most likely in preparation for the excitement the next day would bring.

We said that we should spare a thought
A moment of reflection and acknowledgement was necessary for other individuals who may not have as much privilege as others do.

For all those who wish they had more
The author highlights the struggles experienced by individuals who do not have access to the same resources and opportunities as others do.

Wherever there's somebody
The sentiment expressed is applicable to any and all individuals who may be struggling, regardless of their specific location.

Who doesn't have nobody
There are people who may be feeling deep loneliness and without support systems, and this song encourages those who have the ability to spread positivity and cheer to others.

Well maybe there's somebody
There is always the possibility that there is someone out there who could benefit from a helping hand or a kind gesture.

To fill Noel with bright lights and laughter
A person or group of people could help to bring joy to others, creating a brighter and happier atmosphere.

With memories that matter
Memories that hold importance and significance can be created during this holiday season.

It's true that you are not alone
The message of this song is that even if an individual is feeling alone or isolated during the holiday season, there is always someone willing to help and support them.

I'd be happy
It would bring the author happiness to see others coming together and using this time to help those in need.

If we could all laugh gladly
A collective sense of humor and positivity would be beneficial for everyone involved.

Like we were a big family
The author encourages a feeling of unity and familial love among individuals during the holiday season.

And honestly let's take time to be one
It is important to genuinely take time to connect with others and show kindness during this season.

To reach out to someone brand new
It is also important to extend care and compassion to those who may be new to the experience of loneliness or need.

'Cause you are not alone
The message is reiterated that individuals should not feel as though they are without support, as this song is a reminder that there are people who are willing and eager to help those in need.

This time of year it is easy to forget
The holiday season can often be so wrapped up in excitement and joy that we can forget about those who may not be experiencing such positive times.

People sleeping on the streets
Individuals experiencing homelessness are a group of people who are especially vulnerable during this holiday season.

Bet they would trade tons of presents for a meal
The necessities of life, such as food and shelter, are often more important than material possessions, especially in situations of struggle and survival.

And a bed where they can sleep
A warm and safe place to rest at night is a basic need that is not always available for everyone.

And there are those on their own
Individuals without familial or social support can often experience deep loneliness, which is all the more prominent during the holiday season.

Only hoping for some company
Spending time with others and forming social connections is something that many people hope for during the holiday season, especially those who are feeling alone.

So this year let's all spare a thought
The author reminds listeners that it is important to compassionately think about others during the holiday season and extend a helping hand where possible.

There's always room for another one
There is always the possibility and likelihood of forming connections with new people and expanding one's social circle.

Who's that knocking on the door
The song expresses a sense of welcoming and excitement for new relationships and friendships that could be made during the holiday season.
