So here we are again on Christmas Eve
Our hearts full of wonder and all that Christmas brings
The family is gathered the table's been prepared
That warm familiar feeling's in the air

When you're home for Christmas
Troubles melt away
Everything is brighter
And love fills every day
It's Heaven when you're where you belong
When you're home (when you're home)
Home for Christmas

Outside the window there's a world of white
but here by the fire we're missing you tonight
We've hung the decorations just like we used to do
The only thing missing here is you

When you're home for Christmas
Troubles melt away
Everything is brighter
And love fills every day
It's Heaven when you're where you belong
When you're home (when you're home)
Home for Christmas

Do they decorate for Christmas where you are
Do the angels sing Him carols as you dance between the stars
Do you celebrate the season as you kneel before the throne
Oh I wonder how Christmas feels to be finally home

When you're home for Christmas
Troubles melt away
Everything is brighter
And love fills every day
It's Heaven when you're where you belong
When you're home (home for Christmas)
When you're home (home for Christmas)
When you're home (when you're home)

Home for Christmas"
