shoutout to everyone who has to fly over an ocean if they want to see their family on christmas
lyrics
You know what it means
When the air starts to smell like
The snow floating down from the sky
Your faraway family soon will arrive
Santa’s not the only one who’s getting ready to fly
Soon you’ll be together in a cozy home
Talking bout the weather and how much you’ve grown
Your cousin’s making faces and you laugh at the sight
It’s Christmas Eve and everything’s all right
The night is dark but the house is warm
It’s snowing hard but you’re in from the storm
With ginger and cocoa in the air tonight
It’s Christmas Eve and everything’s all right
Your uncle’s a talker, he’ll tell all his stories
And one of your aunties will sing
Your grandma and grandpa are off in the kitchen
And baking your favorite thing
There’s visitors filling up every room, but you weren’t gonna sleep anyway
Cause you and your sister will stay up and whisper bout
Everything you’re gonna do on Christmas Day
But for now you’re playing games by the fireside
It’s been a long time since the baby cried
Just look at that tree in the candlelight
It’s Christmas Eve and everything’s all right
It’s Christmas Eve and everything’s all right
The town tucked up in a blanket of white
It’s Christmas Eve and everything’s all right
And soon, your home will start to clear
You won’t see everybody for another year
But you’ve still got time before their flight
It’s Christmas Eve and everything’s all right
It’s Christmas Eve and everything’s all right
It’s Christmas Eve and everything’s all right!
