December Baby
JoJo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Spring and fall without you here
Can't erase the hope that
You'll just magically appear
'Cause don't you know what they say?
Miracles still happen every day
So I'ma keep my faith and I'll
Believe you found a way
'Cause there's a chill inside my home
I need you here to hold my hand
December, baby that's when you'll come
That's when I'll see you when winter falls
As November rolls around
December moon creeps in
And before I knew it
New Year's at my door again
I don't know what you've been told
I'm tired of being alone it gets so old
People say it all the time
And I believe it's true
(I believe it's true)
If somebody loved you once they
Might come back to you
(Might come back to you)
So that means that there's a chance you'll
Take your place inside my heart again
Ooh, December, December, baby
That's when you'll come
That's when I'll see you when winter falls
Just keep followin' the North Star
It'll light the way crystal clear
Doesn't matter where you are
I know that it'll lead you here by December
For the end of the year
Just keep followin' the North Star
(The North Star)
It'll light the way crystal clear
(Light the way crystal clear)
Doesn't matter where you are
(Doesn't matter where you are)
I know that it'll lead you here by December
For the end of the year
Oh, December, December, baby
(Oh oh, December) that's when you'll come
That's when I'll see you
(That's when you'll come) when winter falls
Ooh, December, December, baby
(Oh oh, December) that's when you'll come
(That's when you'll come)
That's when I'll see you
(That's when you'll come) when winter falls
Ooh, mmm
The lyrics of JoJo's song "December Baby" convey a sense of longing and hope for a loved one to return. The song seems to be about a person who has been absent for a while, possibly due to a breakup or other circumstances. The singer holds on to the belief that miracles can happen and that this person will somehow reappear. The lyrics capture the feeling of loneliness and the emptiness felt during the seasons without the person's presence, particularly during the winter months.
The lyrics reference the anticipation of the holiday season, with the singer expressing a desire for their loved one to return and be present during that time. They mention the chill inside their home and the need for the person to hold their hand, indicating a longing for emotional connection and warmth. The repetition of the phrase "December, baby" serves as a reminder of the time frame in which they hope for the reunion to occur.
