[Verse 1: Jonah Marais & Daniel Seavey]
I know that it's a holiday
But I ain't the same without you babe
It's been a while since I saw your face
And I've been missing you
Remember when we carved our name
In December when the winter came
It's been a while since I saw your face
Wish I was kissing you

[Pre-Chorus: Zach Herron]
You're like cocoa on a Christmas morning
Skip the presents, yeah, you're all I wanted
Oh, I wonder how it's been in California
Do you remember?

[Chorus: Daniel Seavey + Corbyn Besson & All]
You, ou, oh, oh, ou, ou and me-e at Christmas
You, ou, oh, oh, ou, ou and me-e at Christmas
You, ou, oh, oh, ou, ou and me-e at Christmas
You, ou, oh, oh, ou, ou and me-e at Christmas

[Verse 2: Jack Avery & Corbyn Besson]
I know that it's a holiday
And even though you're far away
I hung your stocking by the fireplace
'Cause I've been missing you
And now you're standing at my door
Looking even better than before
And though it's cold outside my heart is warm
'Cause now I'm kissing you

[Pre-Chorus: Zach Herron]
You're like cocoa on a Christmas morning
Skip the presents, yeah, you're all I wanted
Oh, I wonder how it's been in California
Do you remember?

[Chorus: Daniel Seavey + Corbyn Besson & All]
You, ou, oh, oh, ou, ou and me-e at Christmas
You, ou, oh, oh, ou, ou and me-e at Christmas
You, ou, oh, oh, ou, ou and me-e at Christmas
You, ou, oh, oh, ou, ou and me-e at Christmas

[Outro: Daniel Seavey, Zach Herron & Jack Avery]
I'm serious right now
I don't really know
What are you getting in your stocking?
All I know is that it's, Merry Christmas.. (la da da da da da)
It's that time of the year
It's Christmas baby
(Oh man)

Why Don’t We

Why Don’t We is a boy band consisting of Daniel Seavey, Zach Herron, Corbyn Besson, Jonah Marais and Jack Avery. The members individually gained recognition over social media by posting covers and doing live streams. Seavey was also a contestant on season 14 of the American TV show American Idol. The group started activities on September 27, 2016, with the release of their two singles “Taking You” and “Nobody Gotta Know” and EP Only The Beginning, shortly thereafter.

The band gained a lot of recognition from their 2017 single “Something Different”. They went on to release four EPs in that year, notably gaining recognition for their collaboration with YouTuber Logan Paul, who also directed several of their music videos at this time.

Their first release in 2018, the Ed Sheeran-written “Trust Fund Baby,” ranked #2 on the American iTunes Chart, and was the band’s highest achievement to that date. They released three singles in June, July and August of that year preceding their first full length album on August 31, 2018. “Talk”, the second pre-release, peaked at #1 on the American iTunes Chart, surpassing their personal record just five months later.
