The song in true Kim Taehyung signature has a slow bluesy rhythm tinged with V’s smooth soulful voice and a beautiful musical arrangement. Lyrics like “Christmas without you would just not be Christmas at all. Bright mistletoes up above us, it's just you and me. ‘I love you’”, or “When the world beautifully colours into white, I’ll spread those faded colours together with you. This year, there are many white angels here and there. Take a deep breath and look at those flowers that look like you.” He goes on to sing “Did you see the snow? Like your eyes. Believe in Santa Claus?” and at the end, when he sings simply ‘You make me wanna be a better man’ translates an array of honest emotions almost magically.
