Please Go Home
Peter Bjorn and John Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby's gone, I have no friends
To wish me greetings once again
Choirs will be singing "Silent Night"
Oh, Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas by New Years night
Friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
Oh this is Christmas, yes Christmas my dear
The time of year to be with the ones you love
Then won't you tell me you'll never more roam
Christmas and new Years will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief and pain
Because I'll be happy, happy once again
Um yeah, oh oh oh, oh yeah
No more sorrow, no grief no pain
Because it's Christmas, Christmas once again
Oh friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
Oh this is Christmas, yes Christmas my dear
The time of year to be with the ones you love
Then won't you tell me you'll never more roam
Christmas and new Years will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief no pain
Because it's Christmas, Christmas once again
