This Christmas Day Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't need no diamonds or a fancy car
Or a jet to fly me right up to the star
I just need your guidance, since we've been apart
I feel your love beside me, mending my broken heart

[Chorus 1]
I see you, I call your name
Oh, I'm trying on this Christmas day
I feel you, I hear you say
I know you're not okay, I know it's not the same
But you love me, and that will never change
Oh, and I love you on this Christmas day

[Verse 2]
I know you see me smiling, holding back my tears
Just nothing compares to this without you to share it with, my dear
I'm thinking 'bout the good times, wishing you were here
I'm gonna celebrate, drinking your favorite, cheers

[Chorus 2]
I see you, I call your name
Hope you're flying on this Christmas day
I feel you, I hear you say
You're gonna be okay, I know it's not the same
But you love me, and that will never change
And I love you on this Christmas day
[Bridge]
I know you're somewhere that's beautiful in every way
I know you're somewhere that I will be with you one day
I know you're right there
I close my eyes and hear you say you love me
And that will never change, no no
And I love you on this Christmas day

[Chorus 3]
I see you, yeah, I called your name
No more crying, no, on this Christmas day
I feel you, I hear you say
It's gonna be okay, I know it's not the same
But you love me, and that will never change
And I love you on this Christmas day
And I miss you, yes, every single day

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What did Jessie J say about "This Christmas Day"?
Genius Answer

A friend of mine lost her brother. Watching her be so strong in that moment is where the inspiration came from. I really wanted to give hope and love to her – and to anyone else that has lost somebody. I wanted to do something to help celebrate the people that aren’t there that they wish were."
