When I was a boy, I dreamed of escape,
From rules that bound and voices that shaped.
Longing to grow, to walk on my own,
I never knew the weight of the throne.
Now as I stand in the world so wide,
I miss the days when I could just hide.
Throwing my tantrums, fears in the air,
Someone was always waiting with care.
A Christmas tree shines in a friend’s warm home,
Their family laughs; I sit there alone.
Memories rise like snow in the glow,
I call my parents?it's them I owe.
For every storm they held me through,
For every scar they healed anew.
Now it’s my turn to shield, to guide,
To be the love they can’t deny.
One day of love, one day of cheer,
Cry if you need there’s no shame here.
Hearts that are broken can still be whole,
Christmas will heal the aching soul.
One day of love, one day of cheer,
Cry if you need there’s no shame here.
Hearts that are broken can still be whole,
Christmas will heal the aching soul.
Time rushes on like a winter breeze,
We fight our battles, we plant our seeds.
But on this day, the past feels so near,
The child I was is calling me clear.
Parents grow older, their laughter fades,
The roles reverse as time invades.
But love’s a gift, unwrapped with care,
A timeless bond we’ll always share.
One day of love, one day of peace,
Cry if you need, let pain release.
Christmas unites what time has torn,
A world renewed where hope is born.
Through frosted glass, I see the light,
A gentle warmth in the silent night.
No need to hide, no need to pretend,
For Christmas heals and hearts will mend.
One day of love, one day of cheer,
Cry if you need; there’s no shame here.
Hearts that are broken can still be whole,
Christmas will heal the aching soul.
One day of love, one day of peace,
Cry if you need, let pain release.
Christmas unites what time has torn,
A world renewed where hope is born.
