CHRISTMAS MORNING
Words & Music by
Lee Kweller

Passed a little village on Christmas
day
Didn't think I'd have the time to
stay
Then again I wondered was there
anywhere to go
In the deep December snow

Take me home
Oh take me home
This CHRISTMAS MORNING

Gently now I rapped upon a door
Shivered like I never did before
"Come inside" was all I heard
It was my lover's call
Clinging shadows on the wall

Take me home
Oh take me home
This CHRISTMAS MORNING

There was candle light and
home baked breads
Past'ral greens and firewood
reds
A whispered promise that love
would bind
The taste of innocence and
wine

I awoke and suddenly revealed
Was the terror of the battlefield
Now between the bullets
And the bombs eternal scream
Comes a soldier's prayerful dream

Take me home
Oh take me home
This CHRISTMAS MORNING
