The Christmas wreath is on the door way and the garland's on the wall Baby Jesus in the manger, Santa's cookies down the hall But the hollow in my chest don't feel like Christmas time at all Welcome to my midlife Christmas The Grinch and Max out on the lawn inflated proud and tall And the relatives come knocking with a postcard on the wall But it feels like these traditions were just built to fail and fall Welcome to my midlife Christmas Let it snow Let it snow, man Letting go of past defenses I've been holding Holding Unavoidable and tragic Like Christmas Muzak at the mall I keep looking for the magic But these feelings don't resolve And the grey skies overhead are disillusioned and appalled Welcome to my midlife Christmas (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah) (Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba) Welcome to my midlife Christmas (ooh) Let it snow (ooh) Let it snow, man (ooh) Letting go of past defenses I've been holding The moonlight's fighting headlights I'm still trying to drive it home Feeling older but not wiser Feeling lonely but not alone And a puzzle piece that's missing Is it innocence outgrown? Welcome to my midlife Christmas
