Crossing the ocean with my window view 
thinking of the times I spent with you 
When I close my eyes  and see the family 
Making out their wishlist  all dressed up for Christmas 
On my own  for too many years 
I miss the happiness  I miss the tears 
Chorus: 
When I close my eyes and I'm all alone 
I think of all the love we shared 
When I need a friend or a helping hand 
I know that you will all be there 
I've been gone for so many holidays 
But you can light the fire 
'Cuz this year, I'll be home for Christmas day 
I see the children playing in the snow 
Precious memories that I used to know 
When I see the love, in the lovers eye 
Always there to teach us, the real meaning of Christmas 
On my own, for too many years 
I miss the happiness, i miss the tears 
Chorus 
It doesn't matter, how grown you think you are 
Something happens to ya 
when you see that shinning star 
Chorus 2X
