Homefires (christmas distance are you far​?​)

from The Light Has Come by Matt Spainhour

/

lyrics

Where can you go when winter gets in your eyes
and you're all alone by the firelight?
Here comes the rain.
Its flooding on Christmas morn.
You didn't sleep last night, and the TV's on.

When the rain gets underneath-
there's still a light to come.

I'm sorry for those things I said
so many years ago.
And when I get this far away
everything screams your name.
They're telling me it's time to go home.

I've got a plan.
I've got a big idea.
Remember those Christmas cards on the fireplace?
Well, light a few logs.
This is my Christmas Card.
I'm saying, "I miss you now.
Oh, I miss you now."

I'm sorry for those things I said
so many years ago.
And when I get this far away
everything screams your name.
They're telling me it's time to go home.

I'm sorry for those things I said
so many years ago.
And when I get this far away
everything screams your name.
They're telling me it's time to go home.
They're telling me it's time to go back home.
It's time to go back home.
