Lyrics

Ive always been so into Christmas
Still get excited in November
But the mince pies dont taste as sweet now
And all the tinsels lost its shimmer
Predictably chasing my nostalgia
Just for a taste of festive cheer
Often I go to where I grew up
And just as I feel I might be near
I cannot shake the feeling
Lying alone on my Mums couch
Id rather be home for Christmas
Oh yes Id rather be home for Christmas
With you of course
So if I ever find myself there
Chasing the sparks in memories
I will just picture you out walking
Dragging a tree to where we live
Trying to please this Christmas boy here
Hopelessly caught up in the past
Cos stockings filled with oranges and coronation streets
Have nothing on the freedom when its only you and me
And Ill always think to myself
If Im anywhere else
Id rather be home for Christmas
Oh yes Id rather be home for Christmas with you
Id rather be home for with you
