CHRISTMAS MUST MEAN SOMETHING MORE

If I have to choose my favourite Christmas song this year, (very difficult indeed), I'll say it's Taylor Swift's (yes I know I know, her again) "Christmas Must Be Something More".

I never really know the true meaning of Christmas. Maybe I didn't really bother finding out because well, maybe because I thought I know. I guess to me, Christmas is a festival celebrated by the Christians, a holiday for us, a time where we spent with our loved ones, I do count my blessings on Christmas sometimes, and hang out with friends and get in the mood for jingle and bells. But Taylor Swift wrote a beautiful song reminding all of us the true meaning of Christmas.

And now I know why Christians celebrate Christmas. I think this is a great Christmas song, a whole lot better than Lady Gaga's piece entitled "Christmas Tree". Well if you have not heard it, it could be a good thing. I really don't know how one can write such sordid lyrics for a holy festival. Oh well, some might insist that she's just creative. But imagine relating a Christmas tree with the upper body of a women and men as the present. Well, that's Lady Gaga haha.

But this one is a sincere Christmas classic written by Taylor, so enjoy.

What if ribbons and bows didn't mean a thing

Would the song still survive without five golden rings

Would you still wanna kiss without mistletoe

What would happen if God never let it snow

What would happen if Christmas carols told a lie

Tell me what would you find

You'd see that today holds something special

Something holy, not superficial

So here's to the birthday boy who saved our lives

It's something we all try to ignore

And put a wreath up on your door

So here's something you should know that is for sure

Christmas must be something more

What if angels did not pay attention to

All the things that we wished they would always do

What if happiness came in a cardboard box

Then I think there is something we all forgot

What would happen if presents all went away

Tell me what would you find

You'd see that today holds something special

Something holy, not superficial

So here's to the birthday boy who saved our lives

It's something we all try to ignore

And put a wreath up on your door

So here's something you should know that is for sure

Christmas must be something more

We get so caught up in all of it

Business and relationships

Hundred mile an hour lives

And it's this time of year

And everybody's here

It seems the last thing on your mind

Is that the day holds something special

Something holy, not superficial

So here's to Jesus Christ who saved our lives

It's something we all try to ignore

And put a wreath up on your door

But here's something you should know that is for sure

Christmas must be something

Christmas must be something

Christmas must be something more

There's gotta be more There's gotta be more
