Justin Guarini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents by the tree
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents by the tree
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
Oh, if only in my dreams
The song "I'll Be Home for Christmas" by Justin Guarini is a classic Christmas song that portrays the sentiments of being away from home during the holiday season. The opening line sets the tone for the entire song, with Guarini singing about his longing to be home for Christmas. He reassures those who are waiting for him that they can "count on" him to be there. The lyrics also echo a sense of nostalgia and desire for traditional holiday festivities, with the request for "snow and mistletoe" and "presents by the tree."
The second verse emphasizes the emotional longing of the song, with Guarini singing about how he will be where the "love light gleams," which could refer to being surrounded by family and loved ones. The final chorus repeats the opening lines but adds the poignant phrase "If only in my dreams," which acknowledges the possibility that he may not be able to make it home physically.
The song is a touching reminder of the importance of family and the longing that many people experience when they cannot be with loved ones during the holiday season. The song's simple yet powerful lyrics and Guarini's soulful vocals make it a timeless holiday classic.

I'll be home for Christmas
I will return home in time for Christmas
You can count on me
You should trust that I will be there
Please have snow and mistletoe
I hope that it will be snowy and we can decorate with mistletoe
And presents by the tree
I look forward to exchanging gifts under the Christmas tree
Christmas Eve will find me
I will be present on Christmas Eve
Where the love light gleams
I will be where the feeling of love is strong
If only in my dreams
Even if I cannot physically make it, I will be there in spirit
