The Lyrics are:

CHRISTMAS ONCE AGAIN (Words and music by Dani Lindroos)

CHRISTMAS ONCE AGAIN (by Dani) © Dani Lindroos 2014
Once again it´s comin´
the time we´ve waited, waited for so long
it´s here again
it´s Christmas, Christmas time
for a song

And I sing while I´m roamin´
I´m slowly, slowly roamin, roamin´ home
I´ve been away, so far so far away
comin´ home to stay

How I missed my folks and dearest one
all the time I´ve yearned for everyone

In the sky the stars are glowin´
they´re showing me the way that I should go
It´s Christmas time and I am bound for home
once again
once again…….

Merry Christmas to everybody !

Cheers
Dani

Hi Dani,
You have a very smooth voice (nice range) and I enjoyed your song. It's kind of ironic that we have a similar theme for our Christmas song. I enjoyed listening.

Hi, Sonny !:))


Thank you for your most kind
words!:))The theme for the
song is probably quite usual
I guess? There are so many people
working far away from home only
able to come home for special
holidays, if even then ?

Hi, Dani!

Always nice to see your name reappear!...

Nice job. Really like that guitar solo. And those smooth vocals. Especially like when you hit that low note in "comin´ home to stay"...

Merry Christmas, buddy...
