I Need You Christmas
Jonas Brothers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Friends by the fire to hold
Times have been lonely
And lately I just feel alone
I need you, Christmas
Family with nowhere to go
Angels on treetops and angels in the snow
Oh, the cold
Seasons change, come and go
But there's one thing I know
You'll just stay the same
You don't ever change
I miss the feeling
Waiting for Santa to show
Caroling late night
And all the children's eyes aglow
I need you, Christmas
Oh, how I miss you the most
Greetings from loved ones
And lovers under mistletoe
Oh, oh, oh
If you're young, if you're old
We all wait to be told
Just a simple phrase
"Have a Merry Christmas"
Ooh, ooh
Christmas, ooh, ooh, ooh
Seasons change, come and go
But there's one thing I hope
You'll just stay the same
'Cause I need you, Christmas

Joe’s vocals have gotten tremendously better and mature over the years and I’m loving it. Nick’s voice too. getting stronger. These guys are amazing 🥺😍🔥
Chuuya's Beloved
Okay I’m not really a super fan of jonas brothers that’s why I don’t know this... does Kevin sing at all? Or does he only play guitar? Does he even have a nice voice? Because I’ve never heard him sing before
Justine Rocchio
@Chuuya's Beloved Kevin’s always been my favorite although he doesn’t sing much. He’s got a really good voice. A combo of Joe and Nick in my opinion but I don’t think he’s too comfortable singing solo. He sings backup on occasion but prefers to play the guitar & let his brothers handle the singing
Justine Rocchio
@Chuuya's Beloved you can hear him in Please Me Mine Acoustic on YouTube from when they were younger if you want to get an idea :)
Natalia Montoya
Totally agree!!! Joe’s voice on this song is amazing 😍
Isaac Soakai
@Chuuya's Beloved Only guitar
