[Verse 1]
Vicky Lynn, there is something about you
Are you out there? Baby, where you at?
In the waters or in the wild, come back
You're the one worth suffering for
Still hear you knocking on my door
Only memories and photographs here, Vicky Lynn

[Chorus]
Will you be home for Christmas?
Running down the stairs
Will you be home for Christmas?
With sprinkles in your hair
Will you be home for Christmas?
Oh, Vicky Lynn

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
I've kept a seat for you at the table
Since you vanished without a trace
Find your way home when you're able, Vicky Lynn
Missing all our special traditions
Open your presents by the tree
I'd give anything for you to be here with me
[Chorus]
Will you be home for Christmas?
Running down the stairs
Will you be home for Christmas?
With sprinkles in your hair
Will you be home for Christmas?
Oh, sweet Vicky Lynn, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh (Mm)
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh

[Bridge]
There's not a day that goes by
Thinking about what could have been
Will you still remember me?
Oh, Vicky Lynn, yeah

[Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
