Lyrics
At Christmas My Heart Takes Me Home
If you come to my door on December the 24th
You'll be greeted with a wreath, nothing more
If you call to wish me well
It's a machine you'll have to tell
For no matter how old or young I've grown
At Christmas my heart takes me home
I stumble to the door, then I tumble to the floor
Bags of bags of boxes spilling o'er
Toasts and cheers resound on the kissmas merry-go-round
For no matter how old or young I've grown
At Christmas my heart takes me home
At home mom's apple cider and red raspberry jelly
Make dad a little wider in his maple sugar belly
At home the tree is trimmed with yards and yards of yulery
And Uncle Joe, with mistletoe, is up to his old tom foolery
And all the tiny tots, they look like colored dots
Sliding down a mounting mount of snow
And there's no sweeter scene than the frosted evergreen
That sparkles when the moon's all aglow
At Christmas, at home
It's only just begun and there's another Christmas done
I feel the meaning of the words "loved ones"
I laugh away the tears, I'll do it all again next year
For no matter how old or young I've grown
At Christmas my heart takes me home
