make it to christmas

Jennifer Hudson

Seven days a week, eleven whole months
Feels like I ve been working and working too much
I ain t have no time for the ones that I love
What I really need is that season to come

Bring all our problems back home and unpack it
Like pullin old boxes down out of the attic
It ain t always perfect, we know
That s just the way that it goes

I know the year s been rough
And we need this break so much
From a world so cold, we re living
Well, there s a light at the end
And, baby, it s green and it s red
I know we ll make it if we just make it to Christmas

Th? snow s comin down, twelve days to go
I can already sm?ll that home-cookin on the stove
When the door opens up, I can leave it all behind me
A smile on her face with a lil somethin shiny

We can unwind from that holiday drama
Snuggle by the fire in our matching pajamas
It ain t always perfect, we know
That s just the way that it goes

I know the year s been rough
And we need this break so much
From a world so cold, we re living (Living)
Well, there s a light at the end
And, baby, it s green and it s red
I know we ll make it if we just make it to Christmas

We ll be singin songs, there s a
In the living room (In the living room, yeah)
Drivin back from the North Side
Lookin for a Santa like we always do
We re grown, but we still believe
Christmas is all we need (All we need)
To bring us together, get us through whatever, it s true

I know the year s been rough
And we need this break so much
From a world so cold, we re living
Well, there s a light at the end
And, baby, it s green and it s red (Oh, yeah)
I know we ll make it (I know we ll make it)
I swear that we ll make it (I swear that we ll make it)
Yeah, I know we ll make it if we just make it
To Christmas
