About

This is only bc it sounded good

Lyrics

Verse 1

Midnight frosting on the window

Tangled blue and gold

I can hear the rattle of the old stove humming

Bitter winter air biting at the glass

Pre-Chorus

But Arco you keep saying you’re a shadow

Fading from the frame

Waiting for the end

Calling yourself a ghost

Chorus

Ohana means family

Family never gets left behind

No one gets left behind

You are my family

My friend of Christmas past

Ohana means family

Family never gets left behind

Verse 2

Pine needles drop like rain

Heavier than the ornaments we hung yesterday

Stop pulling at your translucent sleeves

There is marrow in your spirit and warmth in your reach

Pre-Chorus

Because Arco you keep saying you’re a shadow

Fading from the frame

Waiting for the end

Calling yourself a ghost

Chorus

Ohana means family

Family never gets left behind

No one gets left behind

You are my family

My friend of Christmas past

Ohana means family

Family never gets left behind

Bridge

Maybe you’re haunted

Maybe you’re holy

Maybe you’re mine

Keep the cold out

Keep the connection

Keep the fire high

Chorus

Ohana means family

Family never gets left behind

No one gets left behind

You are my family

My friend of Christmas past

Ohana means family

Family never gets left behind
