Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Candles burning out at both ends
I don't miss the crowds, just my friends
Seems like everybody needs a little bit of cheer
Christmas, won't you please come early this year?
[Verse 2]
I don't need the snow, I'm already cold
Tired of the songs on the radio
I can't hear the harmony or see the midnight clear
Christmas, won't you please come early this year?
Christmas, won't you please come early this year?
[Verse 3]
Running out of faith, need a little help
I could use a break from myself
Bells are in the distance, but they're getting hard to hear
Christmas, won't you please come early this year?
[Verse 4]
I need something to believe in
I need something to believe in
I need something to believe in
Something to believe in
[Verse 5]
Just a little peace for my family
Joy that fills the streets like a remedy
For everyone around the world who needs a little cheer
Christmas, won't you please come early this year?
Christmas, won't you please come early
Come early this year?
