Christmas In America

Artist：melissa etheridge
Songs Title：christmas in america

I picked out a tree
And I tied it to the car
There's a wreath up on our door
Eight tiny reindeer in the yard
I drove under the downtown lights
Red and green and blue
The silver neon snowflakes
Only made me think of you

It's Christmas all around me
You're in someone else's land

So I'm sending out my only wish
Hey Santa tell the man

Hey mister send my baby home

This December I don't want to be all alone

Oh Christmas in America
I need you in my arms

Far away from harm

Mister send my baby home

I hear someone singing jingle bells

No wait that deck the halls

And the teenagers with candy canes

Ramble through the malls

The girls are down at Ruby's
Trying to find some Christmas cheer

There's not much to do but drink too much
When everyday's unclear

So here I am on Christmas eve
This silent holy night

And I reach up to the stars for you
And I pray that you're alright

What happened to the peace on earth
All that goodwill toward men
Oh come on all ye faithful
It's time to think again
