I write to you even though I don't know if you are real
The day is about to arrive
You have space for one more letter
I don't ask you for much, just that you come back
Or at least that I don't miss her
Because this is hurting me
I never wanted it to be damaged
Tell me, Santa, why? I don't understand
If this year I behaved well
Don't play with my feelings
December now feels incomplete
A Christmas without you
Maybe it was what I had to face
The cold makes me feel
That the magic left since you're not here
The star of my tree left, left
Santa, please tell me that she is coming back
That she is coming back, back to me
Without you this date makes no sense
And the gifts fill when the heart is empty
I made a wish and it hasn't come true
Not even the stars want me to cross paths with you
I wrote you this letter because I can't take it anymore
Christmas Eve is not so good, I miss it
The photo with you in front of the tree
And I hope these Christmases aren't long
Or at least that I don't miss it
Because this is hurting me
I never wanted it to be damaged
Tell me, Santa, why? I don't understand
If this year I behaved well
Don't play with my feelings
December now feels incomplete
A Christmas without you
Maybe it was what I had to face
The cold makes me feel
That the magic left since you're not here
The star of my tree left, left
Santa, please tell me that she is coming back
That she is coming back, back to me
Santa, please tell me that she is coming back
That she is coming back, back to me

SONG MEANING

Santa turns the classic Christmas wish list into a heartfelt love letter. Venezuelan singer Zhamira Zambrano teams up with Jay Wheeler to ask the big man in red for just one gift: the return of a lost romance. Over shimmering Latin-pop melodies, the duo confesses that December feels empty, the tree has lost its star, and even the cold night air reminds them that la magia se fue once their special someone walked away. By framing heartbreak inside holiday imagery, the song captures that bittersweet moment when festive lights only highlight loneliness.

At its core, the track is a plea for closure and hope. The singers insist they “behaved well” all year, so why does Santa let them suffer? Listeners can feel the mix of nostalgia, longing, and childlike belief as each chorus begs for the ex-lover to “volver a mí.” It is a resonant reminder that no amount of glittering decorations or wrapped presents can fill an empty heart, yet the simple act of wishing keeps a spark of Christmas magic alive.
