Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'll meet you at baggage claim And don't forget to put your name On your suitcase this time How long's it been, now I don't know Seems we were kids, about a minute ago So what happened Missing Auld Lang Syne [Pre-Chorus] Buried in a beanbag we were sleeping On the roof we heard somebody creeping Never saw Santa Claus's face Apartments got no fireplace [Chorus] And a jet plane ain't no Christmas sleigh And the pilot's beard ain't long or gray But you're the best gift that he ever gave On Christmas Eve at baggage claim [Verse 2] I'll drive you through the old neighborhood And the dives if you think that'll do us any good Well no one's here and no one's gone A California winter is like your favorite song You haven't heard in so long [Pre-Chorus] Saint Somebody's bells are ringing I can hear a Christmas movie through the ceiling And somewhere outside this building they can hear the Carols that we're singing [Chorus] And a jet plane ain't no Christmas sleigh And the pilot's beard ain't long or gray But you're the best gift that he ever gave On Christmas Eve at baggage claim And that red light ain't no reindeer's nose Flashing so bright in her cloudy clothes But you're the best gift that she ever gave On Christmas Eve at baggage claim [Verse 3] You'll see me at the carousel Holding up a cardboard sign with your Name that's misspelled [Pre-Chorus] Buried in a beanbag we were sleeping On the roof we heard somebody creeping Never saw Santa Claus's face Apartments got no fireplace [Chorus] And a jet plane ain't no Christmas sleigh And the pilot's beard ain't long or gray But you're the best gift that he ever gave On Christmas Eve at baggage claim And that red light ain't no reindeer's nose Flashing so bright in her cloudy clothes But you're the best gift that she ever gave On Christmas Eve at baggage claim [Outro] On Christmas Eve at baggage claim
