I wonder if the aroma of freshly baked gingerbread cookies
reminds you of family gatherings.
Or if the smell of a steaming cup of hot cocoa
reminds you of peaceful nights and warmth.
Those were great moments, right.
But some scents are just capable of triggering other memories.
The ones you were trying hard to forget.
Don’t you agree?

Lyrics:
It’s almost December
I missed the cold weather
Feeling warm at the fire place
Coming up with silly games
I will remember
Your comfy old sweater
All our jolly Christmas Eves
When it was just u and me
Not until you changed your mind
Oh that we were not fate assigned
You go on and I’ll be fine
Being home alone this year , cause
This is the season,
for snowfall and presents.
Don’t bring me my favourite scent,
if you’re leaving it by the door.
I don’t need a reason ,
a reminder of your presence.
I’m taking down all our decorations,
cause It just don’t feel like Christmas.
It’s almost November,
your vaguely written letter.
Left it by the box of ornaments,
just to be seen.
Oh I will remember,
your cherry sweet fragrance.
With the traces of our memories,
that’ll be long gone.
This is the season,
for snowfall and presents.
Don’t bring me my favourite scent,
if you’re leaving it by the door.
I don’t need a reason ,
a reminder of your presence ,
I’m taking down all our decoration,
cause It just don’t feel like Christmas.
