Do We Still Need Christmas?

Christmas cake and candle light
Family under the tree
Will this really be a sight
We no longer see?

It is clear, the times have changed
Trees are made of plastic
Everywhere people get estranged
The mood is not fantastic

Gifts bought in a hurry
Cookies from the store
Obligations make us worry
Christmas carols only bore

Where has the spirit of Christmas gone?
Tell me where did it go?
Do we care? What do we want?
Do we still need Christmas?
I don't know

Grandparents are long dead
Their lore and kindness missing
Memories replaced by regret
Wish they were here hugging and kissing

The world became unstable
We all have growing fears
I need friends at my table
Not worries, fright and tears

Why can't we agree
On celebrating life
Together is the key
To overcome the strife

Where has the spirit of Christmas gone?
Tell me where did it go?
Is this how we want to go on?
Do we still need Christmas?
Do we still need Christmas?
Yes, I think so
