Not a lot to do
For Christmas this year
Don't really celebrate
But I enjoy the cheer
The food is always great
I see my family
There's something really comforting
'Bout the lights
Up in the trees
And I'll be
Snuggled up on the couch with you
With a hot chocolate
And this blanket for two
Rituals and traditions
Have whatever meaning we choose
It's time to find yourself
A new tradition
If you're feeling like you're missing
Out on the things that make you smile
Cause happiness is a lifestyle
Holidays can make the world seem gray
When life's a mess but you gotta impress
To feel accepted
You're perfect as you are
So don't go changing
I might not believe in Santa
But I believe in you
Maybe you should too
Whether you'll see
Snow or sunny skies
Let's end the year
With hope shining in our eyes
Things aren't always
How we hoped they'd be
But that can't take away
What matters most to me
Cause I am
Here to tell you that you'll be alright
So enjoy what makes you happy
In all these festive nights
Take advantage of
This time that we have
It's time to find yourself
A new tradition
If you're feeling like you're missing
Out on the things that make you smile
Cause happiness is a lifestyle
Holidays can make the world seem gray
When life's a mess but you gotta impress
To feel accepted
You're perfect as you are
So don't go changing
I might not believe in Santa
But I believe in you
Maybe you should
It's time to find yourself
A new tradition
If you're feeling like you're missing
Out on the things that make you smile
Cause happiness is a lifestyle
Holidays can make the world seem gray
When life's a mess but you gotta impress
To feel accepted
You're perfect as you are
So don't go changing
I might not believe in Santa
But I believe in you
Maybe you should too
