I made it through the year
And I did not even collapse
Gotta say thank God for that
I'm torn between what keeps me whole
And what tears me in half
I'll fall apart or stay intact

With tired eyes I stumble back to bed
I need to realize my sorry
Life's not hanging by a thread
At least not yet

So look at me now
It's finally Christmas and I'm home
Head indoors to get out of this weather
And I don't know how
But the closest friends I've ever known
Are all inside singing together
Singing Merry Christmas, here's to many more

It always hurt to be all by myself this time of year
A cold and lonely Christmas Eve
And living out my days alone
Well, that had been my deepest fear
But you promised you won't leave

I look towards the east and see a star
Jesus Christ, it's blessed my life
To know just who you are
You are my hope

So look at me now
It's finally Christmas and I'm home
Head indoors to get out of this weather
And I don't know how
But the closest friends I've ever known
Are all inside singing together
Singing Merry Christmas, here's to many more

Deck the halls with mistletoe
May all your heavy burdens go
Up the chimney in a cloud of smoke
The fire's burning bright

Strike up the band and play the tune
'Cause Christmas will be here and soon
You'll hear our song in every room
This merry Christmas night

Singing Merry Christmas, here's to many more
