Home for Christmas Day

The plane's on time I'm so glad to see Everyone's so glad, smiling cheerfully Presents are stacked in the seat next to me Christmas with family is the place to be I want to be home for Christmas Day Family and friends are on their way With lots of food and time for play I want to be home for Christmas Day I wonder how much the kids have grown I wonder if Auntie still lives alone So much about family is now unknown This is the slowest plane I've been on I want to be home for Christmas Day Family and friends are on their way With lots of food and time for play I want to be home for Christmas Day Years slip by so fast, where did they go Yesterday I was young hoping for snow Now I hope the Christmas Spirit shows As I head home to see all those I've known I want to be home for Christmas Day Family and friends are on their way With lots of food and time for play I want to be home for Christmas Day
