Home For Christmas

(album: The Roger Whittaker Christmas Album - 1976)

I can picture the moonlight on the meadow
I know just how it look this time of year
The valley in the slow, the friendly smiles I know
But that's so many miles away from here

Father will be wondering how I'm doing
Mother will be praying like she does
But I'll get home again oh, how long it's been
Since Christmas is the way that Christmas was

I'll get home for Christmas
No, I'd never miss it
Christmas by the fireside with that family of mine
Christmas day will find me with the miles behind me
I'll make it home on time

Christmas Eve will be time for all my memories
I'll share the greatest love I'll ever known
As gentle voices sing, now the church bells ring
Christmas Eve, I know will find me home

I'll get home for Christmas
No, I'd never miss it
Christmas by the fireside with that family of mine
Christmas day will find me with the miles behind me
I'll make it home on time
