won TB E home for Christmas

Wait until the kids are sleeping
Don't want them to hear me leaving
I'll send a letter to the lawyers
I'm going to make this easy for you

But yet again (yet again, yet again)
Looks like I won't be home for Christmas
And yet again (yet again, yet again)
My bags are packed
It's late December
And another year has slipped away
Another lonely Christmas Day

I'll set a course for California
And try my very best not to call you
This year I'll escape the winter
Make a new start, break a new heart

But yet again (yet again, yet again, yet again)
Looks like I won't be home for Christmas
And yet again (yet again, yet again, yet again)
There's a thousand miles between us
And another year that's seen us
Throw it all away, one we won't get back again
Another lonely Christmas Day
