Man: There ain't no snow here in the desert No jingle bells or Santa on his sleigh No Christmas tree and no Christmas dinner 'Cause I'm stationed here, half a world away John got a Christmas card from his momma Stacy got a package from her man But the only thing I really want for Christmas Is to hold you in my arms once again And it's a lonely red, white and blue Christmas And there's one thing I finally understand The only way I'm going home for Christmas this year Is if there's peace on earth and goodwill toward man Woman: Well it's been 6 months since he left out He's serving the country that he loves There have been times that I just feel so selfish So I'm praying for strength from up above Little James has been asking, "When's daddy comin' home?" And Jamie sometimes cries herself to sleep Our bed is so empty, since my baby's not with me It won't be a jolly Christmas Eve And it's a lonely red, white and blue Christmas I miss you, but you know I understand You're far away from me right now so maybe next year We'll have some peace on earth and goodwill toward men. Both: It's a lonely red, white and blue Christmas When the one you love's a half a world away If I could only have one gift for Christmas this year I'd wake up to your sweet face Christmas day |
