Looking back on childhood days
I can't believe my foolish ways
Thought that Christmas only came from a store
Had to know what was there for me
Underneath the Christmas tree
I didn't know that there could be so much more

But in all of the rush
I was missing so much
Girl, you made me finally see
Yeah, hey

That I never knew the meaning of Christmas
'Til you came into my life
I was lost in the dark
'Til you opened my heart
Like an angel shining bright
I wished on a star
And girl, here you are
Suddenly, I realize
That I never knew the meaning of Christmas
'Til I looked into your eyes

Coming home for the holidays
Seeing friends from around the way
There was always something missing for me
On a sleigh ride caroling
Didn't really mean anything
Without that someone who can make it complete

While the snow's falling down
There was joy all around
'Cause girl, your love has shown me the way

That I never knew the meaning of Christmas
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
'Til you came into my life
I was lost in the dark
'Til you opened my heart
Like an angel shining bright
I wished on a star
And girl, here you are
Suddenly, I realize
That I never knew the meaning of Christmas
'Til I looked into your eyes

Fa la la, fa la la
Fa la la, la la la la
(Singing la, la la la, la la la la)
Fa la la la la la
Fa la la, fa la la, fa la la, fa la la
Fa la la, la la la la
(Singing la, la la la, la la la la)
Fa la la la la la

But in all of the rush
I was missing so much
Girl, you made me finally see
Yeah, hey

That I never knew the meaning of Christmas
(Never knew, never knew, never knew, knew, knew, knew)
'Til you came into my life
I was lost in the dark
'Til you opened my heart
Like an angel shining bright
I wished on a star
And girl, here you are
Suddenly, I realize
That I never knew the meaning of Christmas
'Til I looked into your eyes

That I never knew the meaning of Christmas
'Til I looked into your eyes
