The dashboard says eleven P.M. The radio hums quiet and low I've driven through the falling snow To make it home for the kids, you know The gifts are stacked up in the back A truck, a doll, a scarf for you I bought them in every town I passed I hope the wrapping's holding true Almost home, almost home Just one more mile and I'll be there The Christmas lights are burning bright And you're the warmth I'm driving to Almost home, almost home I've been away too long, it's true Merry Christmas, I'm on my way I'm coming home to you The phone beside me lights up slow Your goodnight text, I read it twice The kids are sleeping, or awake I picture them in their Christmas lights I know the road is long tonight The highway empty, cold and slow But every mile brings me closer To everything I love the most Almost home, almost home Just one more mile and I'll be there The Christmas lights are burning bright And you're the warmth I'm driving to Almost home, almost home I've been away too long, it's true Merry Christmas, I'm on my way I'm coming home to you The night is cold, the road is long But every turn brings me closer I'll hold you close when I walk through the door And tell you all I'm grateful for Almost home, almost home Just one more mile and I'll be there The Christmas lights are burning bright And you're the warmth I'm driving to Almost home, almost home I've been away too long, it's true Merry Christmas, I'm on my way I'm coming home to you Car door opens... honey, I'm home...
