Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's only Christmas once a year
So gather 'round the tree
I'll pour you a cup of cheer
Please wear a smile for me
[Verse 2]
I'm counting on my fingers all the days till you'll be here
Please say that you're coming home for Christmas time
It's only Christmas once a year
[Verse 3]
Last year was so hard with all the friends I couldn't see
Christmas without you was not as bright as it could be
I pushed through those winter nights just wishing you'd appear
Please say that you're coming home for Christmas time
It's only Christmas once a year
[Verse 4]
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
[Verse 5]
Gather all your loved ones hold them close to your heart
'Cause one never knows what lies ahead or when you'll part
[Verse 6]
This year is a Christmas I know we will not forget
Got my head held up and all my decorations set
Trying not to get my hopes too high and shed no tears
Please say that you're coming home for Christmas time
It's only Christmas once a year
