Temporary Wreath

You always said you liked me better
When Christmas came around
Said you preferred my holiday smile,
I get what you meant now
And some people leave their trees up later,
Some people take them down
Turns out that you are one of the latter,
I wonder how you're doing now

Ornaments on the tree,
You decorate your room with fairy lights
You've fallen for sparkly me,
Cause I decorate your lonely life
And I know it won't last,
I'm no more than a temporary wreath
But there's nothing more sad
Than being alone on Christmas Eve
Christmas Eve

You always said you liked me better,
Covered in tinsel galore
Well, I'm still trying to figure out
Which one of us needed it more
And some people leave their trees up later,
Can't let go of the cheer
Well, I guess that you're not one of those people,
We never made it to New Year

And I wonder if that's something I'll never know
Cause as soon as Christmas is gone, you moved right along
Like my name is Frosty,
And I'm made out of melting snow
And it's not like I expected anything else from you
But I'm a hopeful kind of person,
And I was hoping that you'd be one too
You'd be one too

Cause you always said you liked me better
When Christmas came around
