Christmas In April
Christmas in April: A Melodic Yearning for Love and Joy
Lyrics
I wanted to hold you and keep you with me this eve
I desired to embrace you and have you stay with me this evening
You're my darling and I'm what you need
You are my beloved, and I am what you require
I wanted to whisper sweet words of comfort in your ear
I wished to softly speak words of solace into your ear
No more sorrow and no more fear
No more sadness and no more apprehension
Oh, my love
Expression of affection: "Oh, my love"
When will you know?
Pondering when you will understand or realize
If we can meet
If we can come together
Under the mistletoe
Suggesting a meeting under the mistletoe, a symbol of love
Yeah, I'm writing this song about Christmas in April this year
Indicates the song is about Christmas in April, expressing uncertainty
So I'm not sure what to think about that
The singer is unsure how to interpret or feel about this unusual theme
And I'm hoping these words don't ring so hollow when you're here
Hopes that the words of the song won't seem insincere when in your presence
They say, "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year"
A traditional holiday greeting, "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year"
Fits and starts, upset applecarts
Describes a sporadic or inconsistent situation, upsetting plans
Conspiring to keep us apart
Alludes to hidden forces conspiring to keep the lovers apart
I wanted to hold you and keep you with me this year
Reiteration of the desire to embrace and keep the loved one close this year
You're my darling and I want you near
Reaffirmation that the person is dearly loved and wanted nearby
I'm hoping these words don't ring so hollow when you're here
Reiterates the concern that the expressed sentiments may not feel genuine in person
They say, "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year"
Traditional holiday wishes for Christmas and New Year
And may the autumn winds blow away all our fear
Expresses a hope for the autumn winds to dispel all fears
I said, "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year"
Repeats the traditional holiday greeting with good wishes
