This Christmas
Everything has changed
Yes, I know
Everything has changed
Each year should get better, but still
Everything feels the same as before
This Christmas, I'll be in Rio de Janeiro
The snow I've carried all year long
Has weighed so heavy on my heart
Made me remember all the pain I've felt
Of a year I refused to walk in vain
And so, yes, this time
This Christmas, I'm letting go
And I'm moving on
It's a Merry Christmas, a joyful season
The will to live and to win is stronger now
All I've learned through the storms I've faced
I found what matters, what brings me grace
Having you with me has healed my soul
It's changed my garden, made my New Year whole
This Christmas, everything has changed
Yes, I know, everything has changed (I can feel it)
Each year should get brighter, but still
Everything feels the same as before
Yes, Everything feels the same as before
But this Christmas, in Rio, I'll find my peace
The cold and the snow of my past will cease
This heart of mine will finally breathe
And I'll let the warmth of joy release
I'm releasing all the pain (all the hurt)
Dancing in the healing rain (healing rain)
This Christmas, I reclaim (I take back)
The woman that I am! (Who I really am)
It's a Merry Christmas, a joyful season
The will to live and to win is stronger now
All I've survived through the pain I've faced (I survived it all)
Led me to love, led me to grace (to divine grace)
Having you with me has saved my soul (you saved me)
You've changed my winter, made my New Year whole
This Christmas
I'm reborn and free (reborn in love)
Merry, Merry Christmas
I'm finally free, finally me
This Christmas, this Christmas
This Christmas, I'll sing a brand-new song
Yes, this Christmas, I've found where I belong (where I belong)
This Christmas, I'm moving on (moving forward)
This Christmas, I'm coming home (coming home to myself)
To who I've always been
