Holiday Lyrics
I'm using the airwaves just to talk to you
To send my message loud and clear
I used to be private, but I don't care anymore
But I'll tell the whole world if that's what it takes, my dear
Just like the soldiers who ain't coming home this year
Just like the fellas in prison who miss you so much in here
Just like the children that ran away that want to come home tonight
Here's a message from coast to coast
The one that really hurts the most is on a holiday
That's when it hurts, baby
Thanksgiving (Thanksgiving), Christmas (Christmas)
I'm crying on New Year's Eve
On a holiday, that's when it hits me, baby
So if you can't do anything else, won't you please just say you will
And light a candle for me
I hope that you'll receive this message, baby
I hope it finds you'll have a good time
(In time, you'll find it quite soon.)
You might have others to share your love with
But I only have you holding on in my mind
Just like the soldiers that ain't coming home this year
Just like the fellas in this prison that miss you so much, my dear
Just like the children that they ran away that wish they were home tonight
Here's a message from coast to coast
The one we really can't stand it the most is on a holiday
That's when it hurts, baby
Thanksgiving (Thanksgiving), Christmas (Christmas)
I'm crying on New Year's Eve
On a holiday like Easter, baby, I really miss seeing the children
So if you can't do anything else, (Can't do anything else)

Won't you please just say you will and light a candle for me, baby
(On a holiday)
Would you do it for me, darling, honey
Valentine's (Valentine's), Christmas (Christmas)
Crying on New Year's Eve
On a holiday, hey baby, that's when it hits me, darling
Though many people say I'm wasting my time
(Can't do anything else)
In my heart, I feel you'll still be mine when I get home to you, baby
(On a holiday)
When I get home to you, darling. I know
Thanksgiving and Kwanzaa, baby. The 4th of July
I'm toeing the line
I miss you, baby
