Christmas as a Kid - The Get Right Band

Christmas as a Kid is dedicated to our families, and to the sweet memories we have of the holidays growing up. And it's for you and your families too. Although I never had a religious affiliation with Xmas, it's always been an incredibly meaningful and joyful time for me. It's all about the feeling of being surrounded by family and friends that I love so much--and then that gets heightened by the sweets and treats and music and snow and yearly traditions and gifts and lights and decorations. Still to this day, when I need to bring myself some calm or joy, I try to dip back into the feeling of Christmas as a kid. We hope this song captured some of that magic. We're wishing everyone a very happy holiday season this year and sending you our love.

Christmas as a kid
Sparkles in my memory
Crowded round the lights
Surrounded by my family
And me there in the middle
Belly full of treats
Heart full of the feeling
This love is something sweet

Years go by, time can slip
Life is complicated
Bittersweet as chocolate chips
But the magic hasn’t faded

Every new December
I still feel like I did
It’s just how I remember
Christmas as a kid

Cousins fill the room
Aunts and uncles too
Sisters, mom, and dad
My grandma and grandad
The people that we’ve lost
Still living in our thoughts
The ghosts of Christmas past
Proving that love lasts
Stockings overflow
The fire all aglow
The streets are full of snow
There’s nowhere we can go

Every new December
I still feel like I did
It’s just how I remember
Christmas as a kid

Every new December
I still feel like I did
It’s just how I remember
Christmas as a kid
