Erasure
She Won’t Be Home
[Verse 1]
She looks around
There are snowflakes on the ground
Here comes another lonely Christmas
Stars in the night
There is one there shining bright
Shine bright for me this lonely Christmas

[Chorus]
And I wanted to say to you
How much I want to be with you
I wanted to say to you
How much I need to be with you

[Post-Chorus]
Christmas time comes once a year
She knows this time he won't be near

[Verse 2]
She phones her mum (Hello)
Says this time she cannot come
Don't worry I'm with friends this Christmas
Dad gets upset
But in time he soon forgets
Here comes another lonely Christmas
[Chorus]
And I wanted to say to you
How much I want to be with you
I wanted to say to you
How much I need to be with you

[Post-Chorus]
Christmas time comes once a year
She knows this time he won't be near

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
I wanted to say to you (She won't be home)
How much I want to be with you (This christmas time)
I wanted to say to you (She won't be home)
How much I need to be with you (This christmas time)
I wanted to say to you (She won't be home)
How much I want to be with you (This christmas time)
I wanted to say to you (She won't be home)
How much I want to be with you (This christmas time)
I wanted to say to you (She won't be home)
How much I want to be with you (This christmas time)
I wanted to say to you (She won't be home)
How much I need to be with you (This christmas time)
