I'll Be Home for Christmas Kim Gannon, Walter Kent (c) 1943 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-light gleams. I'll be home for Christmas If only in my dreams. |
GOING HOME I'm going home for Christmas, to that lovely place aglow With a special magic splendor I've always treasured so. I'm going home for Christmas, where love waits at the door And my heart is ever welcome to share happiness in store. I'm going home for Christmas, across the sparkling snow, To hear stories, bells and carols and bask in candleglow. I'm going home for Christmas to help trim the Christmas tree And give gifts to all my loved ones who mean so much to me. I'm going home for Christmas because I love it there; Its open arms envelop me with blessings I may share. --Laverne P. Larson |
Oh, there's no place Like home for the holidays 'Cause no matter How far away you roam When you pine For the sunshine Of a friendly gaze For the holidays, You can't beat home, Sweet home I met a man Who lives in Tennessee And he was heading For Pennsylvania and Some homemade pumpkin pie From Pennsylvania Folks are trav'ling down To Dixie's sunny shore From Atlantic to Pacific, Gee, the traffic is terrific |
