Driving Home For Christmas
Christmas Hits Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can't wait to see those faces
Driving home for Christmas, yeah
When I'm moving down that line
And it's been so long
But I will be there
I sing this song
To pass the time away
Driving home for Christmas
It's gonna take some time
But I'll get there
Top to toe in tail lights
I got red lights on the run
But soon there'll be a freeway
Get my feet on holy ground
So I sing for you
Though you can't hear me
When I get through
And feel you near me
(Driving in my car)
Driving home for Christmas
Driving home for Christmas
With a thousand memories
I take a look at the driver next to me
He's just the same
He's just the same
Top to toe in tail lights
Oh, I got red lights on the run
I'm driving home for Christmas, yeah
Get my feet on holy ground
So I sing for you
Though you can't hear me
When I get through
I feel you near me
Driving in my car
Driving home for Christmas
Driving home for Christmas
With a thousand memories
I'm driving home for Christmas
With a thousand memories
I'm driving home, driving home for Christmas, yeah
