이 노래 이야기

화자는 새로 시작된 사랑이 진심인지, 이번 크리스마스를 넘어 계속될지 확신하지 못해 불안해한다. "Santa, tell me if you're really there / Don't make me fall in love again / If he won't be here next year"라는 구절이 반복되며 조심스러운 마음을 드러낸다.

"I've been down this road before / Fell in love on Christmas night / But on New Year's Day, I woke up and he wasn't by my side"라는 구절은 과거의 상처 때문에 더욱 신중해졌음을 보여준다. 들뜬 설렘과 '이번엔 다를까' 하는 조심스러운 의심이 뒤섞인 전형적인 크리스마스 로맨스 송이다.

Santa, tell me if you're really thereDon't make me fall in love againIf he won't be here next year

Santa, tell me if he really cares'Cause I can't give it all awayIf he won't be here next year

Feeling Christmas all aroundAnd I'm trying to play it coolBut it's hard to focusWhen I see him walking 'cross the room

"Let It Snow" is blasting outBut I won't get in the moodI'm avoiding every mistletoe until I know...

It's true love that he thinks ofSo next Christmas I'm not all alone, boy

Santa, tell me if you're really thereDon't make me fall in love againIf he won't be here next year

Santa, tell me if he really cares'Cause I can't give it all awayIf he won't be here next year

I've been down this road beforeFell in love on Christmas nightBut on New Year's Day, I woke up andHe wasn't by my side

Now I need someone to holdBe my fire in the coldBut it's hard to tellIf this is just a fling or if it's...

True love that he thinks ofSo next Christmas I'm not all alone, boy

Santa, tell me if you're really thereDon't make me fall in love againIf he won't be here next year

Santa, tell me if he really cares'Cause I can't give it all awayIf he won't be here next year

Oh, I wanna have him beside me like, oh, woo, oohOn the 25th by that fireplace, oh, whoaBut I don't want a new broken heartThis year I've got to be smart

Oh, baby (Santa, tell me, Santa, tell me)If he won't be, if he won't be here (Santa, tell me)(Santa, tell me)

Santa, tell me if you're really there (Santa, tell me)Don't make me fall in love again ('cause I'm waitin' here)If he won't be here next year (he won't be here next year)

Santa, tell me if he really cares (tell me)'Cause I can't give it all away (tell me, 'cause)If he won't be here next year (he won't be here next year)

Santa, tell me if you're really there (tell me)Don't make me fall in love again (tell me, baby)If he won't be here next year (If he won't be, if he won't be here)Santa, tell me (tell me) if he really cares (do you care?)'Cause I can't give it all awayIf he won't be here next year
