"It's Christmas (A Long Way From Home)" lyrics

It's Christmas, and I'm a long way from home
From all the kids gathered 'round the Christmas tree
Oh. It's Christmas, and although the snow is white
It ain't right
When I'm not at home
Especially at Christmas time

It's Christmas, and I'm a long way from home
I miss them so
But I know they miss too

Yes
It's Christmas, and although the snow is white
What a lonely sight
This silent night
Here without the ones I love

There's not escape for me
It lingers on and on in my mind
Gee, I wish I could see
Children open presents while their eyes fill up with glee

Yes
It's Christmas, and I'm a long way from home
From the Christmas cheer
I'm hoping I'll be home next year

Yes
It's Christmas, and although the snow is white
I've been up all night
And I feel so sad and lonely on this Christmas night

It's Christmas
Yes. It's Christmas
It's Christmas
I miss 'em so
Yes. It's Christmas
Feel so sad
It's Christmas
I miss 'em so much
