For Christmas Lyrics

Well, I made my way back to the city
It's been years since I thought about you
'Round my neck is a chain with the ring that you gave me
You said it was all you could do

I've been staying in towns that I heard of
on a far away radio show
I've been tieing loose ends and then starting again l
iving my life on the road

(Chorus) I'm coming home for Christmas
Nothing could stand in my way
Hang the stockings with care 'cause you know
I'll be there as long as you're waiting for me,
as long as you're waiting for me

You remember the last time I saw you
we were standing right under the tree
And, I followed you home in the deepest of snows
I couldn't stop shivering

So, we warmed ourselves by the fire
I remember the touch of your skin
And, we laughed about things and remembered the dreams
we had back when we were both kids

(Chorus)

Tell all your friends of the girl that you knew
and the boy that she loved in the dark
You were telling me things
I remember it clearly
I couldn't stop falling apart
And, the first time like the last time
We could never remember the words
You were never quite part of the plan
Now, you take that for all that it's worth.

You can take all the things that you wished for
and cross them all off of your list
Not a thing that I want that I don't seem to got
but I'd sure like somebody to kiss

(Chorus)
