I'll Be There Christmas Eve

Who knows why we do the things we do?
Like why I chose this life so far from you?
This crew just got 10 days Christmas leave
And I’ll be there, darlin', I’ll be there
I’ll be there Christmas Eve
Darlin' don’t stop believing
Don’t give up hope, don’t you lose faith in me
'Cause I’ll be there Christmas Eve
I’m 18 hours out from Liverpool
I’ve gone off watch, I’m drunk as any fool
Tomorrow I’ll be sorry for my head
And I know I’ll tread lightly but in my heart I will be glad, like I said
I’ll be there Christmas Eve
Darlin' don’t stop believing
Don’t give up hope, don’t you lose faith in me
'Cause I’ll be there Christmas Eve
I can see the harbour’s morning lights
Oh, bless the ship that brought us through this night
And bless this crew of hard and honest men
In 10 days time, I’m gonna sail with them again, but until then
I’ll be there Christmas Eve
Darlin' don’t stop believing
Don’t give up hope, don’t you lose faith in me
'Cause I’ll be there Christmas Eve
Don’t give up hope, don’t you lose faith in me
'Cause I’ll be there, darling, I’ll be there
I’ll be there Christmas Eve
