25

I promised family they would see me by the 21st
It's been way too long
I've been busy, feels like all I ever do is work
But I'm missing home
'Cause all year long I've been focused on climbing ladders
But Christmas time opens up my eyes to what really matters

I'm gonna walk through the door and see my mama's face
All of my cares, they'll fade away
I'm gonna see that tree covered up in gifts
And it always makes me feel like a kid
And it's crystal clear, every single year
When Christmas day is finally here
My heart's always open, my hope's never more alive
Than on December 25

We'll gather 'round the table holding hands and saying grace
Then we'll cry from laughing
These are the people that have seen me through my hardest days
Thank God I have them
There's nothing like the joy we find when we're together
Christmas time opens up my eyes to what really matters

I'm gonna walk through the door and see my mama's face
All of my cares, they'll fade away
I'm gonna see that tree covered up in gifts
And it always makes me feel like a kid
And it's crystal clear, every single year
When Christmas day is finally here
My heart's always open, my hope's never more alive
Than on December 25

I feel like a shepherd
Hearing angels singing, "Glory"
'Cause I can't wait to see the love
It's waiting for me

I'm gonna walk through the door and see my mama's face
All of my cares, they'll fade away
I'm gonna see that tree covered up in gifts
And it always makes me feel like a kid
And it's crystal clear, every single year
When Christmas day is finally here
My heart's always open, my hope's never more alive
Than on December 25
