I Want To Come Home For Christmas
I'd give anything to see
A little Christmas tree
Then to hear
Hear the laughter of children playing in the snow, oh-oh-oh
'Cause I can't promise my eyes this sight
Unless they stop the fire
'Cause I'm a prisoner of war
Lying here with my self
Hoping my family is well (family is well)
Wish they wouldn't worry
Just try to get us home in time for the Christmas tree
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
'Cause I wanna see snow flakes fall
Yes I, I wanna see Santa Clause
Oh, I wanna hear jingle bells ringing, oh
I wanna hear jingles
But I can't promise my eyes this sight (my eyes this sight)
Unless they stop the fire
(Ah)
If I could make it home in time
I know where you'll be keeping my spirit bright
By wearing my nick in time
Oh, but I'd give anything to see you, the family and that little Christmas tree
Oh, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah
But I, I wanna see snow flakes fall
I, I wanna see Santa Clause
I wanna hear jingle bells
Jingle bells ringing
One more time
I, I wanna see snow flakes fall, oh
I wanna see Santa Clause
And I wanna hear, one more time
Those jingle bells 'round the Christmas tree
Ooh
A little Christmas tree
Then to hear
Hear the laughter of children playing in the snow, oh-oh-oh
'Cause I can't promise my eyes this sight
Unless they stop the fire
'Cause I'm a prisoner of war
Lying here with my self
Hoping my family is well (family is well)
Wish they wouldn't worry
Just try to get us home in time for the Christmas tree
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
'Cause I wanna see snow flakes fall
Yes I, I wanna see Santa Clause
Oh, I wanna hear jingle bells ringing, oh
I wanna hear jingles
But I can't promise my eyes this sight (my eyes this sight)
Unless they stop the fire
(Ah)
If I could make it home in time
I know where you'll be keeping my spirit bright
By wearing my nick in time
Oh, but I'd give anything to see you, the family and that little Christmas tree
Oh, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah
But I, I wanna see snow flakes fall
I, I wanna see Santa Clause
I wanna hear jingle bells
Jingle bells ringing
One more time
I, I wanna see snow flakes fall, oh
I wanna see Santa Clause
And I wanna hear, one more time
Those jingle bells 'round the Christmas tree
Ooh
