Careful what you say

This time of year

Tends to weaken me

And have a little decency

And let me cry in peace

But there’s a place where I

Erase the challenges Ive been through

Where I know every corner

Every street-name

all by heart

And so it is a part of my

courageous plan to leave

With a broken heart

Tucked away under my sleeve

I wanna go home for Christmas

Let me go home this year

I wanna go home for Christmas

Let me go home this year

Ill pack my bags

and leave before the sun rises tomorrow

Cause we act more like strangers for each day

That I am here

But I have people close to me

Who never will desert me

Who remind me frequently

What I was like as a child

And so it is a part of my

courageous plan to leave

With a broken heart

Tucked away under my sleeve

I wanna go home for Christmas

Let me go home this year

I wanna go home for Christmas

Let me go home this year

I dont know what my future holds

or who Ill choose to love me

But I can tell you where I’m from

And who loved me to life

And so it is a part of my

courageous plan to leave

With a broken heart

Tucked away under my sleeve

I wanna go home for Christmas

Let me go home this year

I wanna go home for Christmas

Let me go home this year
