Arthur Christmas

I didn't write the lyrics.

LYRICS:
[Intro]
Tree lit
Snacks lined up on the table
Same film, same spot on the cable
It’s that time again, I’m ready, I’m stable

[Verse 1]
Got my hoodie, got my blanket, lights dim
Every year, hit play, let the feels kick in
Arthur running through the snow for the one kid
Single present, whole world, still he won’t quit
S-1 in the sky, all the gadgets, all the rush
But it’s Arthur with the heart, he the one I trust
’Cause he sees that little girl like I see me
Waiting by the window, pure belief in the scene

[Chorus]
Arthur Christmas, hit repeat
Every year, same couch, same seat
Know the lines but it still hits deep
For that one kid’s smile, lose sleep
Arthur Christmas, that’s my thing
When the sleigh bells ring, I sing
Every December, I run it back
Watching him go all-out for one gift track

[Verse 2]
Mom in the kitchen, I can smell that spice
Phone on silent, this my one-night vice
Grandsanta wild, old school, still speed
Bryony with the tape, every detail she read
I’m laughing at the chaos, but I feel that fear
What if someone’s left out, what if no one appears
Then he pedals that bike through the frozen air
And I swear, every time, get a tear right there

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Year after year, I grow older, same show
Still that porch light glow in the snow
Still that little girl’s face when the wrapping tears
Reminds me why I ever started caring
It’s more than elves and a sleigh in the mist
It’s “you matter” written in a gift
So I sit, let the credits roll slow
’Til next Christmas night, we go again, press go

[Chorus]
