lyrics

Mid December and I’m counting the days
Would have been all packed up by now
This year’s been different in so many ways
I’m starting to learn to slow it down

But every time I see you on the other side of the camera
Is another day I’m understanding family more and more
What I want to do is be with you but now I have to say
What I’ve never said before

I won’t be home for Christmas
I won’t be home this year has passed me by
I won’t be home for Christmas
Maybe next year

I still went online shopping, still put up a tree
Sent out some cards, hung some mistletoe
But now were living with an enemy we can’t see
Can we get a Christmas miracle?

But every time I look back through the memories in the camera
Is another day I’m understanding family more and more
I’d give anything to be with you but now I have to say
What I’ve never said before

I won’t be home for Christmas
I won’t be home this year has passed me by
I won’t be home for Christmas
Maybe next year

‘Tis the season, I’ll be ok
Sure it’s Christmas but it’s just another day
I won’t let myself break down
I’ll be with Vince and Charlie brown
For a while now

I won’t be home for Christmas
I won’t be home this year has passed me by
I won’t be home for Christmas
I won’t be home this year has passed me by
I won’t be home for Christmas
Maybe next year
