 a bit of a song that might help you with them

Christmas Eve will find you
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas

one more to get you thinking............

Santa Claus is gonna be dropping in on me.
Now is there something I might have missed
I had quite a few things on my list

For years now it's been bringing him back
