I Want To Come Home For Christmas

Marvin Gaye

Transposer:

[Verse 1] I’d give anything to see A little Christmas tree And to hear hear the laughter Of children playing in the snow To kiss my baby under the mistletoe But I can’t promise my eyes this sight Unless they stop the fight Cause I’m a prisoner of war Lying here in my cell Hoping my family is well Wish they wouldn’t worry so much about me Just try to get us home In time for the Christmas treetree [Chorus] Listen oh yeah ooo I want to see snowflakes fall I want to see Santa Claus Ooo I want to hear jingle bells ring Want to hear jingle bells ringingringing [Verse 2] But I can’t promise my eyes this sight Unless they stop the fight Ooo ooo oooooo [Bridge] If I can’t make it home in time I know you’ll be keeping my spirit bright By wearing my name and trying to stop this fight Ah but I’d give anything to see you the family And that little Christmas tree [Chorus] Ooo...I want to see snowflakes fall I want to see Santa Claus Oh I want to hear jingle bells ringing Yes I want to hear jingle bells ringing Ooo..I want to see snowflakes fall I want to see Santa Claus

Cette chanson évoque le désir profond de rentrer chez soi pour les fêtes de Noël. L'artiste, prisonnier de guerre, se remémore les joies simples associées à cette période, comme un sapin illuminé et les rires d’enfants jouant dans la neige. Il exprime une grande nostalgie, espérant retrouver sa famille et vivre ces moments de bonheur, tout en réalisant que son rêve ne pourra se concrétiser que si les conflits cessent. Le contexte de la chanson souligne les tragédies de la guerre et les sacrifices des soldats loin de leurs proches durant les périodes de fête. Ce souhait de paix et de réunion familiale résonne particulièrement, car il rappelle l'importance de l'amour et de la connexion humaine, surtout à Noël.
