Lyric If I Get Home on Christmas Day

(words & music by Tony Macaulay)
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

Writing letters everyday
Never really seem to say
The way I feel deep in this heart of mine
Thought I m half a world away
If we re patient and we pray
Know I ll get my 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
