Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse 1:

Baby you know I thought I'd never
Sing this song before the end of December.
But you came along, an angel from heaven.
Ooo-ooo-oo.

I thought presents only came under pine trees.

Happiness from shopping, material things.
But I unwrapped you and you're my everything.
Ooo-oo-oo.

Chorus:

Christmas came early this year.
No need for fanfare or reindeer.
Cause my greatest gift came when you appeared.
Christmas came early, so early this year.

Christmas came early this year.
All that I want is now and here.
Cause my greatest gift came when you appeared.
Christmas came early, so early this year.

Verse 2:

Jingle bells, silver bells, they are ringing.
I was cold, now you hold me, snow's melting.
You're better than anything in my stocking.
Ooo-oo-oo.

With a bow, now I know we're together.
Every moment, every minute's a treasure.
That's the best thing you've helped me remember.
Ooo-oo-oo.

Bridge:

Santa he went to the top of my list.
I can tell by the way that you kiss.
I couldn't have ask for a more perfect gift.
I'm in lo-o-ve.

Chant:
Miracles they happen baby when you lose all of your fear.
Show the love that's in your heart, it can be Christmas all the year.
(3x)

Miracles they happen baby when you lose all of your fear.
I showed the love that's in my heart and Christmas came early this year.

Overall Meaning

In Keo Nozari's Christmas Came Early, the song speaks about how the feeling of love and companionship is the greatest gift. The singer initially believed that Christmas was just about presents that came from shopping and material things. However, their perspective changes when they meet someone special who becomes their everything. They reflect on how the holidays are usually about fanfare and reindeer, but with their newfound love, they no longer need any of that. They express their gratitude at having found such a special person, singing that it is as if Christmas came early this year.

The chorus is repetitive, which emphasizes the theme of how the greatest gift is finding true love without the need for anything grand or grandiose. The singer even mentions Santa, but emphasizes that a perfect gift will come from the right person, through a genuine and heartfelt gesture - in this case, true love. The song also uses imagery, such as bells ringing and snow melting, to further accentuate the idea that Christmas is about the warmth of intimacy and sharing time with loved ones.

The bridge stresses that the singer is now in love, and by baring their heart to this person, they made Christmas come early. The chant, "Miracles they happen baby when you lose all of your fear. Show the love that's in your heart, it can be Christmas all the year," can be interpreted as a message that fear should not be a reason to hold back expressing one's emotions. The singer shares that they were able to overcome their fear about love and open up, which allowed them to find something as beautiful as the Christmas spirit year-round.
