Lyrics Oscar & Me - Hanne Sørvaag

Sometimes it takes more than a tree
Some things you can't write on a list
This can be the loneliest time of year

Too hard trying to please everyone
You are where you don't feel you belong
This can be the loneliest time of year

I still remember last Christmas when I had enough of it all

We ran away from the chaos and stress
Aiming for perfect turned into a mess
Almost alone on Christmas Eve
Roaming the streets
Just Oscar and me
Fractured relations can only get worse
When you're supposed to be happy it hurts
Golden retrievers don't ask for a thing
We made our own Christmas
Oscar and me

Sometimes you just misunderstood
You know your intentions were good
And this should be the merriest time of year

It's useless to pretend we're the same
No point in placing the blame
When we can't deal with this time of year

I still remember that Christmas when I had enough of it all

We ran away from the chaos and stress
Aiming for perfect turned into a mess
Almost alone on Christmas eve
Roaming the streets
Just Oscar and me
Fractured relations can only get worse
When you're supposed to be happy it hurts
Golden retrievers don't ask for a thing
We made our own Christmas
Oscar and me

No partridge in a pear tree
No Disney cartoon TV
Could fix this

We ran away from the chaos and stress
Aiming for perfect turned into a mess
Almost alone on Christmas eve
Roaming the streets
Just Oscar and me
Fractured relations can only get worse
When you're supposed to be happy it hurts
Golden retrievers don't ask for a thing
We made our own Christmas
Oscar and me
