Twenty seven days until Christmas and all I see 
Is the sun shining bright, blue skies, and palm trees 
No pretty white lights at night or falling snow 
But I'll sit and wait for the day when it's time to go 
A Northbound flight to city lights 
The town I know in Ohio 
A chance to be with you once again 
I'll be home for Christmas 
Don't you wait for me 
Let's light up the tree and deck the halls 
So we can all sing fa-la-la 
The snow is falling, the fire is calming 
And there's no where else I'd rather be but here 
Twenty seven days until Christmas and all I do 
Is sit here day after day and think about you 
And wonder how you've been, and how you are 
and if the notes I wrote you got that far 
Cause' being a thousand miles away 
can feel like a lifetime 
I'll be home for Christmas 
Don't you wait for me 
Let's light up the tree and deck the halls 
So we can all sing fa-la-la 
The snow is falling, the fire is calming 
And there's no where else I'd rather be but here
