I'll Be Home For Christmas
Lady and Gent Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents under the tree
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
And I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams

Please have snow and lots of mistletoe
And presents under the tree

Oh, yes
In Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
And I'll be home for Christmas

If only in my dreams
If only in my dreams

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "I'll be Home for Christmas" by Lady and Gent convey the sentimentality and nostalgia surrounding the holiday season. The singer promises to be home for Christmas, reminding the listener that they can count on them. The mention of snow and mistletoe, as well as the image of presents sitting underneath the tree, conjures up images of a traditional Christmas celebration with loved ones nearby.

The refrain "Christmas Eve will find me where the love light gleams" is particularly poignant, as it conveys the idea that Christmas is about being surrounded by love and warmth, whether that be with friends, family, or even in one's own heart. The final line, "If only in my dreams," adds a bittersweet note, acknowledging that not everyone may be able to physically be with loved ones for the holidays.

Overall, "I'll be Home for Christmas" is a heartwarming and nostalgic song that captures the spirit of the holiday season and the importance of love and family.

Line by Line Meaning

I’ll be home for Christmas
I promise that I will make it home for Christmas

You can count on me
You can trust that I will be there for Christmas

Please have snow and mistletoe And presents under the tree
I wish for there to be snow, mistletoe, and gifts under the tree when I arrive

Christmas Eve will find me Where the love light gleams
I will be spending Christmas Eve in a warm and loving place

And I’ll be home for Christmas If only in my dreams
Even if I cannot physically make it home, I will still be there in my heart and mind

High-bun yellow-sweater & her swaggoo won before she even stepped onto the pavement -- but I am DEFINITELY HERE FOR the facial passion on pippi-pigtails in the green shirt tho'!!! 🙌🏽💞💜💞🤗 REAL dancers (&other performance Artists) can relate to, and appreciate that!!
Adorable content.

Daniel Hollingworth

Finally someone else who noticed, her moves are relatively straight forward, no semi lethal acrobatics but there's so much going on, her presence, her command of the "dance floor", her perfect poise & seemingly effortless ease, tongue in cheek, all done with such candor, charisma & charm, wiping the "floor" with humorous grace. A swaggering performance. 😄

Lynn Ata

3y↑3

Y'all should understand that these kids are doing different types of dances,
The first girl is krumping, and she is sooooo good, honestly hard to find young krumpers.
The second girl is doing animations and popping and she is purely talented.
I think the third girl is just a mixture of hip hop dances and modern dances.
All boys basically did breakdancing and some locking, which was so good!!!
SO I don't think it's bad. Honestly, this is wonderful for their age.

I've done a lot of dance battles before, and I'm going to tell you the craziest one. I was with my friends, dancing, and a guy walks up to us. (We were dancing contemporary and lyrical btw.) He says," Hip hop is so much better than ballet." I look at my friends and say," Let's settled this with a dance battle. But we've gotta do it with a partner." He asks," So it's just partner work?" I nod. We clear a space. (This was after school, so it was fine.) I ask a friend to get her speaker and play some songs. She pulls it out. I say," My partner will be (I'll call him Tyler) Tyler." He comes up and I whisper some moves into his ear. I ask," You ready?" He says," Let's do this." I tell my friend to play In Love Again by Kay Dalia. She plays it and I jump into Tyler's arms. We do some crazy lifts. He puts my down and we signal the other guy to go. He lifts his partner. He tries to throw her in the air and catch her, but drops her on her butt. I laugh and say," Impressive." The dance battle ended and we won.
It wasn't that interesting, but I thought it was funny.
