I'm leaving for the ferry, that's going to take me home

In just a few more hours now I'll see the light of dawn

And as I cross the water blue and the cold wind seems to say

You're coming home for christmas, you're coming home to stay



Surrounded by the water and the outport along the shore

Home is where my heart is, I'm going home once more

Home to see the waters blue and a old-fashioned christmas tree

Yes home is where my heart is, it's christmas time again



Christmas time for everyone, it's christmas time again

Tree lights flashing everywhere and the welcome at the door

This time of year brings happiness and a ringing in my ear

It's christmas time for everyone, I'm going home this year



In just a few more hours I'll see the window pane

And everyone will look to me as if I'm in a picture frame

The picture of the christmas tree and the flashing light so bright

Yes home is where my heart is, I'm going home tonight



Christmas time for everyone it's christmas time again

Tree lights flashing everywhere and a welcome at my door

This time of year brings happiness and a ringing in my ear

It's christmas time for everyone, I'm going home this year

It's christmas time for everyone, I'm going home this year
