Lyrics

WHEN HE COMES HOME FOR CHRISTMAS

EDMOND RAMSEY

V1
MY NAME IS ETHAN ALLEN COLE
I MAY BE ONLY EIGHT YEARS OLD
BUT THERE?S A LOT OF STUFF I KNOW
THAT GROWN-UP?S THINK I DON?T
LIKE WHEN MOMMY CRIES HERSELF TO SLEEP
I SEE THE TEAR STAINS ON HER CHEEKS
SHE TRIES TO KEEP BAD NEWS FROM ME
SHE SAYS I?M TOO YOUNG TO KNOW
BUT I KNOW THE WORLD HAS TROUBLES
AND IT?S HARD SOMETIMES TO DO WHAT?S RIGHT
SO I?M LYING HERE BENEATH THESE COVERS
WRITING YOU TONIGHT

CHORUS:
DEAR SANTA ALL I WANT
IS DADDY HOME FOR CHRISTMAS
ONLY YOU AND GOD IN HEAVEN KNOW
HOW MUCH HE MISSES US
SO TAKE BACK ALL MY PRESENTS
ALL I WANT IS HUGS AND KISSES
WHEN HE COMES HOME FOR CHRISTMAS

V2
DAD?S NAME IS CAPTAIN ALLEN COLE
I WISH HE?D NEVER HAD TO GO
BUT? I KNOW HE?S COMING HOME
BECAUSE HE TOLD ME SO
MOMMY DOES THE BEST SHE CAN
I DO MY BEST TO LEND A HAND
HE SAID, WHILE I?M GONE YOU?LL BE THE MAN
SON, I?M PROUD OF YOU, YOU KNOW
AND I KNOW THE WORLD HAS TROUBLES
AND SOMETIMES IT?S HARD TO DO WHAT?S RIGHT
SO I?M LYING HERE BENEATH THESE COVERS
WRITING YOU TONIGHT

REPEAT CHORUS:
