Home For Christmas

I'm writing to say I'll be home for Christmas

Seeing faces I ain't seen for so long

I can't wait to see the wall to wall

Carpeting you had installed

In the front room, the one we never used.

I just can't wait to be home for Christmas

Even though a few are dead and gone

There'll be sister Sue, and brother Steve

Who spent his life ignoring me

But I don't care

I'm coming home for you

Home for Christmas

Home for Christmas

I'm writing to say I'll be home for Christmas

To some, I guess, I'm just a name

Like Uncle Dick, who you used to say

Left his wife and sailed away

To Australia, never to return

I'm writing to say I'll be home for Christmas

'Cause who knows when we'll meet again?

Can't afford the round trip fares

Guess I'm not the millionaire

I was planning to be

But I promise you'll see me this Christmas

I'll be home for Christmas
