Mabel's poignant lyrics delve into the often-overlooked emotional struggles that accompany festive seasons. The song captures a stark contrast between societal expectations of joy and personal feelings of isolation. Mabel highlights how Christmas, typically associated with happiness and togetherness, can amplify loneliness for many. She underscores the disparity between external festivities—like sleigh bells and tree lights—and internal desolation. The singer's reflections on people without homes or loved ones further emphasize the widespread nature of this seasonal melancholy. Through her candid expression, Mabel invites listeners to acknowledge these emotions and find solace in shared experiences of loneliness during what is often deemed "the most wonderful time of the year."
Loneliest Time Of Year
Lyrics
Sorry I'm not so merry
But I feel like this yearly
Christmas time isn't my vibe
Brings no joy into my life
Watch the snow as it's falling
And I don't feel a damn thing
Only darken the tree lights
Just another December night
Sleigh bells ringing, still I feel sad
It'll have you thinking of all the things that you don't have
But I know
If I'm feeling lonely
I can't be the only one
Drowning in my tears
So somebody show me
How am I supposed to have fun
At the loneliest time of year?
Year
The loneliest time of year
Can you even imagine
All the people that haven't
Got no presents, no mistletoe?
Some are living without a home
Waking up in the morning
And there's nobody calling
All wrapped up in a winter coat
Still longing for someone to hold
Sleigh bells ringing, still I feel sad
It'll have you thinking of all the things that you don't have
But I know
If I'm feeling lonely
I can't be the only one
Drowning in my tears (drowning in my tears)
So somebody show me
How am I supposed to have fun
At the loneliest time of year? (Loneliest time)
Year (loneliest time)
The loneliest time of year
So it doesn't matter if I managed to get
All the things on my list
Something about the yuletide
Makes me lonely inside
Can't just be me feeling like this
If I'm feeling lonely
I can't be the only one (only one)
Drowning in my tears (drowning in my tears)
So somebody show me
How am I supposed to have fun
At the loneliest time of year? (Loneliest time)
Year (loneliest time)
The loneliest time
The loneliest time of year
(Loneliest time)
Year (loneliest time)
The loneliest time of year
