lyrics

Lights will be tangled and the tinsel will be all in a knot
The baubles will be broken though they’ve spent the year alone in the loft
Candy canes ready for the tree and
Candle flames counting to the eve of
Christmas, so we need the decorations put up

Come home
Come back to the house
Drive straight through the town
Make it through the traffic cause the boxes from the attic are down

The neighbours are competing with the lights they’re putting out in the front
There’s no way that we’re keeping up but maybe do a wreath if you want
Mistletoe, we need to go pick it
And holly though your fingers they will be pricked
Evergreen is all that we need to spruce the house up a lot

Come home
Come back to the house
Drive straight through the town
Make it through the traffic cause the boxes from the attic are down

We’ll go out to get the tree from that place you say that you always liked
We’ll find the star to go on top, spend an hour checking the lights
Ornaments to go around the house and
All the ones we never dare to throw out
Arranging all the memories of Christmases since you were a child

Come home
Come back to the house
Drive straight through the town
Make it through the traffic cause the boxes from the attic are down
