the christmas i know

Lyrics: Gabriella Lin Music: Gabriella Lin It's that time of the year When our loved ones are near I can't help wondering if you would be here We'll put on our favorite show While we wait for the first snow I'll be grabbing snacks while you're telling jokes Every Christmas I wish I had these Perhaps I sleep now we'd meet in my dreams I just wish you'd come home so It'd be the Christmas I know Fireplace and presents We'd be home and listen To our all-time favorite Christmas album And we'd look through old photos Snowflakes on the windows It'd be nice if I could put time on hold Every Christmas I wish I had these Perhaps I sleep now we'd meet in my dreams I just wish you'd come home so It'd be the Christmas I know Where I won't stare at the door From day to night Hoping you'll walk in before I close my eyes Where I get to hear your voice From time to time When everyone says goodbye You'll still be here by my side Now it's not a question It's more like a statement You won't be here, I learned my lesson I might've spoken too soon I've always kept that one room Just in case you'll show up one afternoon I'll always wonder what if you didn't leave Perhaps I sleep now we'd meet in my dreams I just wish you'd come home so It'd be the Christmas I know
