Home for the Holidays Lyrics

The lights are strung, the tree's aglow

The fire's warm as the cold winds blow

Suitcases piled by the old front door

I wish I could stay just a little bit more

Laughter echoes through the halls

Photographs framed on the weathered walls

It's the season for love, for hearts to align

But I'm wishing for a little more time

Home for the holidays, where the heart feels whole

Wrapped in the comfort of the stories we've told

Every hug, every laugh, every glass of red wine

I'm home for the holidays—and a little more time

Grandma's in the kitchen, humming her tune

The same one she sang in a warm June

The kids are sneaking cookies, thinking no one can see

But it's moments like these that mean everything to me

The clock on the mantle ticks too fast

Each second reminds me these times won't last

So I hold them close, like a melody's rhyme

Wishing for a little more time

Home for the holidays, where the heart feels whole

Wrapped in the comfort of the stories we've told

Every hug, every laugh, every glass of red wine

I'm home for the holidays—and a little more time

The years go by like falling snow

Covering tracks we once used to know

But the love we share is a light that stays

Even when we go our separate ways

Home for the holidays, where the heart feels whole

Wrapped in the comfort of the stories we've told

Every hug, every laugh, every glass of red wine

I'm home for the holidays—and a little more time

As I say goodbye, there's a tear in my eye

But I'll carry this love wherever I fly

Home for the holidays, it's a gift so divine

And I'll treasure each moment—a little more time
