What is it about this time of the year
Is it the coolness of the air or the lights everywhere?
Parties to attend to laughter never ends
Is anybody there to be my more than friends?

Children and strangers
All learn to be one
Fathers and daughters
Recall what it's like to be loved
Oh December, you have a way of bringing out the best in us

Forgotten what it's like to be a child
To list down all my dreams
Sit on your lap, are you still listening?
Cause when you get older life gets colder

Sometimes I just wanna hit the pause but I'm afraid
I'll never press play again

Children and strangers
All learn to be one
Fathers and daughters
Recall what it's like to be loved
Oh December, you have a way of bringing out the best in us

Oh December, how I wish you could stay longer
Oh December, tell me, does it get any better
Oh December, why do you have to go by so fast
