Lyrics
[Verse 1]
He’s counting sandbags, she’s counting days
He’s got red dust, she’s got snow on the driveway
He stares at a screen in a crowded tent
She’s saving his place where the stockings went
[Pre-Chorus]
Two mugs on the table, only one filled up
Two hearts on a call that keeps breaking up
[Chorus]
It’s Christmas in a different time zone
You’re by the tree, I’m on this cot alone
You got carols through the kitchen door
I got engines humming, boots on the floor
But close your eyes, I’ll meet you there
Under that star we both still share
Yeah, it’s Christmas in a different time zone
But I’m coming home in every prayer
[Verse 2]
She wraps up presents with one name twice
He pulls his jacket a little more tight
She lights a candle at the window frame
He keeps your letter in his chestplate, same place
[Pre-Chorus]
One sky over strangers, one sky over you
Same moon, same miracle, different view (oh)
[Chorus]
It’s Christmas in a different time zone
You’re by the fire, I’m where the cold wind blows
You got laughter rolling down the hall
I got quiet between midnight calls
But close your eyes, I’ll meet you there
Under that star we both still share
Yeah, it’s Christmas in a different time zone
But I’m coming home in every prayer
[Bridge]
[M & F together, soft harmony]
So hang that wreath, I’ll wear this name
You hold our world, I’ll hold this frame
Till miles turn into your front porch light
And this long road turns into tonight (hey)
[Chorus]
It’s Christmas in a different time zone
You’re saying grace, I’m checking my phone
You got angels on the mantelpiece
I got angels watching over me
So close your eyes, I’ll meet you there
Under that star we both still share
Yeah, it’s Christmas in a different time zone
But I’m coming home in every prayer
Yeah, I’m coming home in every prayer
