I'll be home for Christmas You can count on me Please have snow and mistletoe And presents on the tree Christmas Eve will find me Where the love lights gleam I'll be home for Christmas If only in my dreams I always tell myself I'm going home for Christmas But I never get there And I find myself spending it all alone And the loneliness gets so bad sometimes I cry 'cause I can't take it But this year, if I have to walk or crawl all the way I'm gonna make it Christmas Eve will find me Where the love lights gleam I'll be home for Christmas If only in my dreams
