Various Artists - I'll Be Coming Home lyrics

[Instrumental intro] [Verse 1] I'll go get eggnog If I get a ride to town But in this frigid air I just might slide the whole way down You'd say "I'm busy" And I shouldn't meet you there Already I'm in red and green and spreading Christmas cheer [Bridge] I know it's only the twenty-third And you haven't seen me since the fight It's been long enough for us to move on I know that you miss me Your first Christmas gift is coming home tonight [Verse 2] I'll admit I'm kind of worried How will you react When I'm knocking on your door in just a Santa hat? I would have called to tell you But you wouldn't get the phone I hope you didn't get that restraining order 'Cause this Christmas I'll be coming home [Pre-Chorus] And the way those sparkling tears in your eyes (Your eyes) Remind me is what [?] [Chorus] So come on, baby, cut me some slack One night and you'll want me back And we'll spend this Christmas Eve together [Verse 3] Do you remember How we used to be in love But things eventually fell apart and push turned into shove Promise I'll be friendly Like I was back in the day Can't we stay up 'till three AM waiting for Santa's sleigh? I'll go get eggnog If I get a ride to town (So, uh, just let me in, um) [Pre-Chorus] And the way those sparkling tears in your eyes (Your eyes) Remind me is what [?] [Chorus] So come on, baby, cut me some slack One night and you'll want me back And we'll spend this Christmas Eve together [Interlude] [Instrumental] (Do, do, do, do, do do) And do we all think Do we all think sometime Just waiting for winter For reason and rhyme [?] That you'll forgive me yet And when the sun hits the ice You'll sing (Do, do, do, do, do, do) 'Cause I see [?] That you'll forgive me yet And when the sun hits the ice You'll sing (Do, do, do, do, do, do) [Verse 4] Now, baby, let's move past this Things are not like before By the way, I really hope you open up the door I thought you would forgive But if you really don't want me Here, then why'd you put presents for me under the tree? [Pre-Chorus] And the way those sparkling tears in your eyes (Your eyes) Remind me is what [?] [Chorus] So come on, baby, cut me some slack One night and you'll want me back And we'll spend this Christmas Eve together So come on, baby, cut me some slack I see you're wanting me back I swear, this time we'll do it right [Instrumental outro]
