I feel asleep, to the sound

of the church bells ringing out

In this quiet little town

i am dreaming.

i woke up to the sound

of an angel crying out

gotta leave this little town

gotta move on

im not coming home, not coming home

this christmas i am all alone

im not coming home, not coming home

i am out here on the road

im not coming home, not coming home

this christmas i am all alone

im not coming home, not coming home

i am out here on the road

gotta phonecall from my son

he said, dad, youre number one

mommy's going nuts, think shes crazy

put your mother on the phone

ive gotta tell her shes not alone

shes sick of waiting around

then i tell her these words

im not coming home, not coming home

this christmas i am all alone

im not coming home, not coming home

i am out here on the road

im not coming home, not coming home

this christmas i am all alone

im not coming home, not coming home

i am out here on the road

keep holding on,

it wont be long

but for now

im not coming home, not coming home

this christmas i am all alone

im not coming home, not coming home

i am out here on the road

im not coming home, not coming home

this christmas i am all alone

im not coming home, not coming home

i am out here on the road

keep holding on,

it wont be long,

but for now

I'm not coming home
