The colder it gets outside The more it warms my soul Christmas is on my mind I just gotta make it home It won't be long ‘till I am singing To the rhythm of the Salvation Army bell ringing But this road keeps going for miles and miles Oh please get me there on time Hold on Christmas I'm begging you please Hold on Christmas Christmas wait for me For me Tell Santa to take his time Don't be in such a rush Just give me a chance So I can get there before he does I gotta see my baby and hold her hand While we're watching It's A Wonderful Life again It's the only present I need right now So please could you help me out Gifts beneath the tree Kids pretend to sleep It's finally Christmas Eve So keep the fire bright Don't turn out the light I'll be home tonight
