It's about always wanting to be somewhere else with someone else when you really should be enjoying the here and now. "June in December" might give you some good advice on how NOT to spend your holidays. Merry Christmas, take care of each other!

lyrics

I’m meeting June in December
Summer went by way too fast
She’s wearing her best dress
I’m eager to confess
I’m still in love, I’m still in pain

Snowflakes are falling on her lips
They silence the words that she speaks
Bells ringing in my fear
Erase happy new year
A lonely man, what wonderland?

This Christmas candle is burning in both ends.
I cannot find....

Joy
It’s so hard to let go
I brought you this present
Nothing more than my presence
I wish upon a star
Won’t let you go too far...
I guess I’ll surrender
But I surely remember
Meeting June in December

As I recall you seemed lighter, the sun never seemed to go down
There’s always a reason to fear the next season
But here it is, and I’m still around

Chestnuts are roasting on fires
The beer in my hand has turned stale
My kids in the kitchen don’t know why I’m bitching,
But here we are, it’s way too late

This Christmas candle is burning in both ends.
I cannot find....

Joy
It’s so hard to let go
I brought you this present
Nothing more than my presence
I wish upon a star
Won’t let you go too far...
I guess I’ll surrender
But I surely remember
Meeting June in December

Come, you unfaithful
I’m mournful and despondent

I guess I’ll surrender
But I surely remember
Meeting June in December
