Michael Bubl・ Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Christmas)
The snow's coming down
(Christmas)
I'm watching it fall
(Christmas)
Lots of people around
(Christmas)
Baby please come home
(Christmas)
The church bells in town
(Christmas)
All ringing in song
(Christmas)
Full of happy sounds
(Christmas)
Baby please come home

They're singing "Deck The Halls"
But it's not like Christmas at all
I remember when you were here
And all the fun we had last year

(Christmas)
Pretty lights on the tree
(Christmas)
I'm watching them shine
(Christmas)
You should be here with me
(Christmas)
Baby please come home

They're singing "Deck The Halls"
Not like Christmas at all
I remember when you were here
All the fun we had last year

(Christmas)
Oh if there was a way
(Christmas)
I'd hold back this tear
(Christmas)
Oh but it's Christmas day
(Please)
Please
(Please)
Please
(Please)
Please
(Please)
Please
(Please)
Please
(Please)
Please
Oh come home
Oh babe
You know I need you
Oh come home
I gotta have you
You know I need you
(Christmas)
Whooaa

I gotta have you




It's Christmas, Christmas,
Christmas, Christmas yeah

Overall Meaning

The song "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" by Michael Bublé is a holiday song that captures the heart and the spirit of Christmas. The opening verse starts with "The snow's coming down, I'm watching it fall" which sets up a romantic and joyful image of the holiday season. The repetition of the word 'Christmas' in every line of each verse adds to the festive mood of the song. However, the lyrics take a nostalgic turn in the chorus when the singer pleads his lover to come back to him for Christmas. The lyrics aren't only about love, but also about memories and longing as the singer recalls the fun he had with his lover last year. The line "They're singing 'Deck The Halls', but it's not like Christmas at all" emphasizes his sadness and how the occasion has lost its flavor without his lover beside him.


The song radiates raw emotion as Bublé’s voice weaves between lively happiness and deep heartache in a way that draws the listener into the song's storyline. He uses strong phrases such as "you know I need you" and "I'm holding back my tears" to communicate his message of plea and longing. The song's catchy melody, joyful bells, playful guitar, and cheerful holiday spirit, along with its lyrics and Bublé's exceptional vocal performance, make "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" a timeless holiday classic.
