"Make It To Christmas" lyrics - JENNIFER HUDSON

Seven days a week, eleven whole months
Feels like I've been working and working too much
Ain't have no time for the ones that I love
What I really need is that season to come

[Pre-Chorus:]
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

[Chorus:]
I know the year's been rough
And we need this break so much
From a world so cold we live in
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

The snow's comin' down, twelve days to go
I can already smell that home-cookin' on the stove
When the door opens up, I can leave it all behind me
A smile on my face with a little somethin' shiny

[Pre-Chorus:]
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

[Chorus:]
I know the year's been rough
And we need this break so much
From a world so cold, we live in (Live in)
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

[Bridge:]
We'll be singin' songs, dancin' all night long
In the livin' room (In the livin' 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

[Chorus:]
I know the year's been rough
And we need this break so much
From a world so cold we live in
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

[Outro:]
Oh, yeah
Oh
