Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) lyrics
U2It's Christmas baby, please come home
Yeah...
The snow's comin' down (Christmas)
I'm watchin' it fall (Christmas)
Lots of people around (Christmas)
Baby, please come home (Christmas)
The church bells in town (Christmas)
They're ringin' a song (Christmas)
What a happy sound (Christmas)
Baby, please come home
They're singin' 'Deck the Halls'
But it's not like Christmas at all
I remember when you were here
And all the fun we had last year (Christmas)
Pretty lights on the tree (Christmas)
I'm watchin' 'em shine (Christmas)
You should be here with me (Christmas)
Baby, please come home
Oh-oh-oh
Baby, please come home
Baby, please come home
They're singin' 'Deck the Halls'
But it's not like Christmas at all
I remember when you were here
And all the fun we had last year (Christmas)
If there was a way (Christmas)
I'd hold back these tears (Christmas)
But it's Christmas day (Christmas)
Baby, please come home (Christmas)
Oh-oh-oh (Christmas)
Baby, please come home
Baby, please come home
Baby, please come home... Oh-oh
Baby, please come home...
