Verse 1
There’s a chill in the air and a glow in the street,
Hear the bells keeping time with the snow at our feet,
Every window is shining, every doorway aglow,
And there’s only one place that I’m longing to go.
Pre-Chorus
I’ve been counting the miles,
I’ve been dreaming all year,
Now the lights of December
Are telling me Christmas is here.
Chorus
Christmas is calling me home,
Back to the people I love,
Where the fire is bright
And the stars fill the night,
And the snow keeps falling above.
Christmas is calling me home,
No matter how far I may roam,
There’s a place in my heart
Where the holidays start—
And Christmas is calling me home.
Verse 2
Put the wreath on the door, bring the old records out,
Fill the house up with music and laughter about,
Let the cold wind keep blowing, we haven’t a care,
There’s a fire, there’s a table, and everyone’s there.
Pre-Chorus
And the years may go by,
But some things never change,
When December comes calling,
The whole world feels young once again.
Chorus
Christmas is calling me home,
Back to the people I love,
Where the fire is bright
And the stars fill the night,
And the snow keeps falling above.
Christmas is calling me home,
No matter how far I may roam,
There’s a place in my heart
Where the holidays start—
And Christmas is calling me home.
Bridge
So let it snow all night,
Let every rooftop turn white,
We’ll raise a glass to Christmases past
And make this Christmas last.
And when the morning comes,
And the whole world wakes up bright,
We’ll remember why we traveled so far
To be together tonight.
Final Chorus
Oh, Christmas is calling me home,
Back where I’ve wanted to be,
With the ones gathered near
That I’ve missed through the year,
And presents beneath the tree.
Yes, Christmas is calling me home,
And wherever tomorrow may go,
When December arrives,
There’s a feeling inside
That everybody knows…
There’s a place in your heart
Where the holidays start—
And Christmas is calling you home.
Outro
Christmas is calling…
Christmas is calling…
Calling me home.
