Saving Up Christmas
Performer(s): Captain & Tennille



Last spring you went off to war
We put our world on hold
We set our sights on next December
When you'd be coming home
We knew the kids would be watching us
Couldn't let our heartbreak show
No tears on your uniform
Everything good to go
But now the snow is falling
And tomorrow's Christmas day
You'll be sitting down to Christmas dinner
In a land so far away
So I'm saving up my Christmas
Until my wish comes true
'Cause it won't feel like the holidays 'til I feel my arms around you
Now, don't you worry honey
I'll make sure the kids are fine
We'll have stockings and toys
But baby I'll save that bottle of wine
'Til my Christmas day comes through
I'll be saving up my Christmas for you
Now the silver moon shines a lonesome light
On the freshly fallen snow
My loneliness seems too much to bear
But I'm gonna fight through this holy night
In my private little war
Right now we need brave soldiers everywhere
So I'm saving up my Christmas
Until my wish comes true
'Cause it won't feel like the holidays 'til I feel my arms around you
Now, don't you worry honey
I'll make sure the kids are fine
We'll have stockings and toys
But baby I'll save that bottle of wine
'Til my Christmas day comes through
I'll be saving up my Christmas..
I'll be saving up my Christmas
Until my wish comes true
'Cause it won't feel like the holidays 'til I feel my arms around you
Now, don't you worry honey
I'll make sure the kids are fine
We'll have stockings and toys
But baby I'm gonna save that bottle of wine
'Til my Christmas day comes through
I'll be saving up my Christmas for you
I'll be saving up my Christmas for you
