Christmas, Hopefully

[Verse 1]
Morning breaks
It's a sobering take
But I'm here, you are not again
This time of year, I usually lean on
My closest friends, secretly hoping
That you'll be coming back here

[Chorus]
I don't mind, I don't care
I don't need your love
No, maybe I never did
I am strong
And I belong
To this world and if I cannot belong
To anyone then I'll confide
In the quiet winter, light a gathering
And I hope you find some peace of mind
This Christmas, hopefully

[Verse 2]
It was Christmas night, back in '99
You went out, no one knew where you went
And I've spent my whole damn life
Trying to find you

[Chorus]
I don't mind, I don't care
I don't need your love
No, maybe I never did
I am strong
And I belong
To this world and if I cannot belong
To anyone then I'll confide
In the quiet winter, light a gathering
And I hope you find some peace of mind
This Christmas, hopefully

I do mind, I do care
I still need your love
And the truth is that I always will
I'm not strong, I belong
To this world, and if I cannot belong
To anyone then I'll confide
In the quiet winter, light a gathering
Hoping to find some peace of mind
This Christmas, hopefully
