Song lyrics
I'm coming home from my hardest year
I'm making plans not to
Make plans while I'm here
And this life has been no holiday
A complicated situation
I'm fine with all my memories
Still I could use vacation

It's Christmas in California
And it's hard to ignore that
It feels like summer all the time
But I'll take a West Coast winter
To remove my splinters
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive

I'm coming home
To the lights and buzz
Streets look the same
Still nothing's as it was
And this place is paradise I'm sure
Here's my reservation
I've gotten lost here once before
Inside a good vibration

It's Christmas in California
And it's hard to ignore that
It feels like summer all the time
But I'll take a West Coast winter
To remove my splinters
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive

And time
It's said it stops for no one.
The seasons come and go and that's just time.
Well it's said it stops for no one.
The seasons keep on going
Whether or not we're blind.

It's Christmas in California
And it's hard to ignore that
It feels like summer all the time
But I'll take a West Coast winter
To remove my splinters
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
(It's good to be alive)

i love how the piano sounds in this song. andrew's voice is kind of haunting when he sings.. it sounds different from anything he's done with soco or jack's & i really like it.

So this was the first song released since Andrew got better.. and his songs just get more and more amazing.

This song is a lot different than any of the other JM songs, but it's still one of the best.

Even though it's for Christmas, I still feel like I could listen to it all year round. =)

"It's good to be alive.." too true. =D
