Stoplights and the headlights
Are a festive red, green, and gold
Procrastinating shoppers
Caffeinated against the cold
But there's nothing you can buy me
It's your hand I wanna hold

There's miles between brothers
Years between friends
We'll all be together again

'Cause you're not alone when
The porch lights are shining
It's your invitation to a love that's been waiting
Singin', "Child, won't you come on in"
It's a hometown Christmas

The lights are on the houses
And the trees are brought inside
The parking spot at the local mall
Is the hardest thing to find
Yeah, but I'm pretty sure that the Christmas star
Was in my daughter's eyes last night

Yeah, 'cause there's miles between us
Years between friends
But we'll all be together again

'Cause you're not alone when
Those porch lights are shining
It's your invitation to the love that's been waiting
One thing on my wishlist
It's a hometown Christmas, yeah

Hark, the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn king
Hometown Christmas
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconcile
Hometown Christmas

Grandma's singing those Christmas songs
That none of us have ever heard
Us cousins we'd be playing up
'Til dinner was served
But the feeling that comes back to me
Is hard to put into words

'Cause there's miles between lovers
Years between friends
And we'll all be together again

'Cause you're not alone when ('lone when)
The porch lights are shining (shining)
It's your invitation to a love that's been waiting
So child come on in

We're not alone when
The porch lights are shining
It's your invitation to a love that's been waiting
Singin', "Child, won't you come on in"
It's a hometown Christmas
It's a hometown Christmas

Hark! The herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn king
