I am dreaming tonight of a place I love
My thoughts are enveloped by a place I hold dear in my heart
Even more than I usually do
My love for that place is stronger than it normally is
And although I know it's a long road back,
Despite recognizing that the journey back is a lengthy one,
I promise you
I assure you
I'll be home for Christmas
I will be present at home for Christmas
You can count on me
You can trust me
Please have snow and mistletoe
I implore you to have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree
And to adorn the tree with presents
Christmas Eve will find you
On Christmas Eve, you will be discovered
With a love like me
Possessing a heart full of love like mine
I'll be home for Christmas
I will be present at home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
Even if only in my nightly fantasies
