VERSE 1.
Snowy night hugs the station
Taxis run and hide
Subway rhymes wander downward
And beckon me to ride
Weaving my way back home
On the Christmas Train
On another homeward run
On the Christmas Train
Chorus
Slipping thru the stations
And the swirling steam
Memories of Christmas past
Are here to fill our dreams
Gliding through the mountains
And across the moonlit plains
I’m coming home to you
On the Christmas Train
VERSE 2.
Touching down and shooting sparks
Drifting through the dark
Colored lights cut thru the night
And sooth my anxious heart
Repeat Chorus
Rolling thru the stations
The snow and the steam
Memories of Christmas past
Are here to fill our dreams
As sleigh bells fill the mountains
And ring across the plains
I’m coming home to you
Bridge
I have a special gift for you
You’ve dreamed of for awhile
A little velvet box with a bow on top
It’s sure to make you smile
All you want for Christmas
Is a heart that’s real and true
That’s my gift for you
Repeat Chorus
When I finally reach your station
Through the ice and the snow
We’ll be wrapped up by a fire
Vowing never to let go
Flying ‘cross the mountains
And above the moonlit plains
I’m finally home with you
On the Christmas Train
I’m finally home with you
On the Christmas Train
