Intro

Verse 1

I made it through the year and I did not even collapse

Gotta say, thank God for that

I'm torn between what keeps me whole and what tears me in half

I'll fall apart, or stay intact

With tired eyes I stumble back to bed

I need to realize my sorry life's not hanging by a thread

At least not yet

Chorus

So look at me now

It's finally Christmas and I'm home

Head indoors, to get out of this weather

And I don't know how, but the closest friends I've ever known

are all inside singing together

Singing, Merry Christmas, here's to many more

Verse 2

It always hurts to be all by myself this time of year

A cold and lonely Christmas Eve

And living out my days alone, well that had been my deepest fear

But you promised, you won't leave

I look towards the east and see a star

Jesus Christ, it's blessed my life to know just who you are

You are my hope

Chorus 2

So look at me now

It's finally Christmas and I'm home

Head indoors, to get out of this weather

And I don't know how, but the closest friends I've ever known

are all inside singing together

Singing, Merry Christmas, here's to many more

Bridge

Deck the halls with mistletoe

May all your heavy burdens go, up the chimney in a cloud of smoke

The fire's burning bright

Strike up the band and play the tune, cause Christmas will be here and soon

You'll hear our song in every room, this Merry Christmas night
