| Though it’s not that time of year for everyone
|
| «Just another day,» some might say
|
| But there’s somethin' in the air
|
| That blows the coolest sense
|
| Of understanding
|
| Some say it’s just another celebration
|
| Or a call to put the petty things aside
|
| Either way it’s safe to say that on this day someone’s out there
|
| Prayin' for a little understanding
|
| Here I stand on the tarmac
|
| Airplane ticket in my hand
|
| Someone’s on the other side
|
| Miles away and warm inside
|
| Waiting at the gate for my arrival
|
| I’ll be home for the holidays
|
| Home beside the fire
|
| Home inside the lights upon the tree
|
| I’ll be home for the holidays
|
| Right at home at the table
|
| Home as we all pray for family
|
| Home is where the holidays
|
| Will always be
|
| Will always be
|
| Southern California’s still got Santa Claus
|
| Christmas lights that stay up all year round
|
| But it only snows in the movies
|
| And only the broke and the locals stick around
|
| Here I stand in a sound stage
|
| Scarf around my neck, cheeks painted red
|
| One more take and that’s a wrap
|
| I’ve still got my bags to pack |
| Just get me out the door and on my way
|
| I’ll be home for the holidays
|
| Home beside the fire
|
| Home just like a star upon the tree
|
| I’ll be home for the holidays
|
| Right at home at the table
|
| Home for the holidays
|
| Where I wanna be
|
| I’ll be home for the holidays
|
| Right at home at the table
|
| Home as we give thanks for family
|
| Home is where the holidays
|
| Home is where the holidays
|
| Home is where the holidays
|
| Will always be
|
| Will always be, yeah
|
| Will always be, yeah |
