Home for Christmas

Crossing the ocean with my window view
Thinking of the time I spent with you
And I close my eyes and I see the family
Making out their wish lists, all dressed up for ChristmasOn my own for too many years
I miss the happiness, I miss the tears
When I close my eyes and I'm all alone
I think of all the love we share, when I need a friend
Or a helping hand I know that you will all be thereI've been gone for so many holidays but you can light the fire
'Cause this year
(This year)
I'll be home for Christmas day
I see the children playing in the snow
Precious memories that I used to know
And I see the love in a mother's eyes
(Mother's eyes)
Always there to teach us the real meaning of ChristmasOn my own for too many years
(Too many years)
I miss the happiness, I miss the tears
When I close my eyes and I'm all alone
I think of all the love we share when I need a friend
Or a helping hand, I know that you will all be thereI've been gone for so many holidays but you can light the fire
'Cause this year
(This year)
I'll be home for Christmas, it doesn't matter
It doesn't matterHow grown you think you are, something happens to ya
When you see that shining star, when I close my eyes
When I'm all alone, I think of all
Think of all the loveThe love we share, when I need a friend
(You are there)
Or a helping hand, I know that you will all be there
I've been gone for so many holidays, but you can light the fire'Cause this year

(Close my eyes)
And I'm all alone
