If I Get Home on Christmas Day

If I get home, on Christmas day

I won't need soft words to say

I miss you

And I can't stay a while

You'll see it in my eyes, and when I smile

If I get home before midnight

While you're still, sleeping tight

I'll take you in my arms, and there you'll stay

I get home, on Christmas day

Writing letters everyday

Never really seem to say

The way I feel deep in my heart

Though I'm a half world away

If we're patient, and we pray

Know I'll get a chance, with you this time

If I get home, on Christmas day

I won't need soft words to say

I'll miss you, and I can stay a while

You'll see it in my eyes, and when I smile

If I get home before, midnight

While you're still, sleeping tight

I'll take you in my arms, and there you'll stay

If I get home, on Christmas day

I'll take you in my arms, and there you'll stay

If I get home, on Christmas Day
