Home for Christmas
Crossing the ocean with my window view
Thinking of the time I spent with you
And I close my eyes, and I see the family
Making out their wish list, all dressed up for Christmas
On my own for too many years
I miss the happiness, I miss the tears
When I close my eyes, and I'm all alone
I think of all the love we share
When I need a friend or a helping hand
I know that you will all be there
I've been gone for so many holidays
But you can light the fire
'Cause this year (this year)
I'll be home for Christmas day
I see the children playing in the snow
The precious memories that I used to know
And I see the love in the mother's eyes (mother's eyes)
Always there to teach us the real meaning of Christmas
On my own for too many years (too many years)
I miss the happiness, I miss the tears
When I close my eyes, and I'm all alone
I think of all the love we share
When I need a friend or a helping hand
I know that you will all be there
I've been gone for so many holidays
But you can light the fire
'Cause this year (this year)
I'll be home for Christmas-
It doesn't matter (it doesn't matter)
How grown you think you are
Something happens to ya
When you see that shining star
When I close my eyes, and I'm all alone (all alone)
I think of all the love we share (I think of all the love)
When I need a friend, or a helping hand (you are there)
I know that you will all be there
I've been gone for so many holidays
But you can light the fire
'Cause this year (this year)
I'll be home for Christmas, yeah
When I close my eyes (close my eyes), and I'm all alone (all alone)
I think about the love we share (I think of all the love we share)
When I need a friend (need a friend) or a helping hand (helping hand)
I know that you will all be there (I know that you'll be there)
I've been gone for so many holidays
But you can light the fire, I'm sending out this wire (sending a wire)
'Cause this year
I'll be home for Christmas day
Ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah, I'm comin' home
Ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah, I'm comin' home
One more time, say, "Ooh"
Ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah, I'm comin' home (I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home)
One more time, say, "Ooh"
Ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah (I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah, I'm comin' home (I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah, I'm comin' home (I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home)
Thinking of the time I spent with you
And I close my eyes, and I see the family
Making out their wish list, all dressed up for Christmas
On my own for too many years
I miss the happiness, I miss the tears
When I close my eyes, and I'm all alone
I think of all the love we share
When I need a friend or a helping hand
I know that you will all be there
I've been gone for so many holidays
But you can light the fire
'Cause this year (this year)
I'll be home for Christmas day
