Driving Home For Christmas lyrics
The High KingsI'm driving home for Christmas
Oh, I can't wait to see those faces
Driving home for Christmas, yeah
Well I'm moving down the line
And it's been so long
But I will be there
I sing this song
To pass the time away
Driving in my car
Driving home for Christmas
It's gonna take some time...
Top to toe in tailbacks...
Oh, I got red lights on the run
So I sing for you
Though you can't hear me
When I get through
And feel you near me
Driving in my car
Driving home for Christmas...
Driving home for Christmas...
With a thousand memories...
I take a look at the driver next to me
And he's just the same...
He's just the same...
Top to toe in tailbacks
(I'm driving home for Christmas)
Oh, I got red lights on the run
(I can't wait to see those faces)
I'm driving home for Christmas
(Driving home for Christmas)
Get my feet on Holy ground
(Feet on Holy ground)
So I sing for you
Though you can't hear me
When I get through
And feel you near me
Driving in my car
Driving home for Christmas...
Driving home for Christmas...
Driving home for Christmas (driving home for Christmas)
With a thousand memories (a thousand memories)
Driving home for Christmas (driving home for Christmas)
Driving home for Christmas (driving home for Christmas)
Driving home for Christmas (driving home for Christmas)
