Lyrics
Next week I sing in choir
when we stand around the tree
I've never missed a Christmas, from 2010 to ‘23
Every year I get a solo, every year I learn the words
I used to get so nervous,
it’d make my stomach hurt

But I always powered through
and over time it got much better
Younger me was pretty shy, but younger me was clever
So I'd distract myself, while I waited for my verse
and it took forever
Younger me,
I'd love to tell her

You don’t gotta be perfect,
all the time my love 
No you don't see it, but you've come so far
I know you're tryna do your best.
But just lay your mind to rest
People will love you for the way you are
So when I’m singing ‘In the Bleak Midwinter’
And oh, ‘Let it snow’ 
I'm thinking no, where’d it go?,
all the time, I guess it's fine
but I just find that there's something about singing around the tree
that makes me think of all the things I'd love to say to younger me

Next week I sing in choir
when we stand beneath the lights
Hard to believe after the next one
I've spent 14 nights, over 14 different years singing to the crowd
Oh, I used to get so nervous,
I'd have to look down at the ground
But oh, I always powered through
And I always did it well
Younger me was good at hiding it
so people couldn't tell that I’d count to 10
and I held my breath when I stood there waiting for my cue
Younger me knew lots of things,
But how I wish she knew

You don’t gotta be perfect, all the time my love
No you don't see it.
But you've come so far
I know you're tryna do them proud
But my darling, you're allowed
to have things to figure out
And not always tryna aim above the bar
Singing ‘Shine the light’
And ‘Oh holy night’ 'm thinking over the past, over the years,
all of the laughs, all of the tears
Oh, there's just something about singing around that tree
that makes me think of all the things I’d love to say to younger me

Younger me, It's okay.
You're alright
younger me
Oh, you don't have to hide.

One day you'll be proud
One day you'll see
Everything is how it's meant to be
There's just something about singing around that tree
that makes me think of all the things
I'd love to say to younger me
