Story Behind The Song
Every year I go home to Boston I think about the travel and the anticipation of being with the ones I love. Many of us in the US travel home during the holidays and I thought it would be nice to write a song about it.

Lyrics
It's that time, that time of year again
I'm headed home with family and friends
They'll be buses and cars, planes and trains
I'm so happy to be going home
Home for Christmas
And I can smell Mom's cooking as I pack my bags
Our tree will look the same as love always has
It's Christmas at home with the ones we love
I'm so happy to be going home
Home for Christmas
This holiday season, is the best reason
To say I love you all year long
So when I'm home, I'm never alone
I'm at home where I belong
Home for Christmas
They'll be cousins and uncles, aunts and good friends
Brothers and sisters who must understand
Their children all grew up this year
So raise your glass in cheer
We're home for Christmas
Home for Christmas
Share your heart
Share your wealth
Share your dreams
Share yourself
Share your time
Share your love
We're home again
Home for Christmas
This holiday season, is the best reason
To say I love you all year long
So when I'm headed home, you're never alone
We'll sing this song next year at home
Home for Christmas
It's Christmas at home, home for Christmas
It's Christmas at home, home for Christmas
