I'm Dreaming of Home

“I’m Dreaming of Home” is the movie soundtrack of the recently Golden Globe nominated film Merry Christmas. In the Christmas Truce of 1914, when the French, German and English soldier spent the Christmas Eve together, without any hesitation about each others hostility, in the film, they sang this very touching and nostalgic song while they are waiting on the very day, Jesus Christ was born.

I’m Dreaming of Home

I hear the mountain birds,
The sound of rivers singing,
A song I’ve often heard,
It flows through me now,
So clear and so loud,
I stand where I am,
And forever, I’m dreaming of home
I feel so alone, I’m dreaming of home.

It’s carried in the air,
The breeze of early morning,
I see the land so fair,
My heart opens wide,
There’s sadness inside,
I stand where I am,
And forever, I’m dreaming of home
I feel so alone, I’m dreaming of home.

This is no foreign sky,
I see no foreign light,
But far away am I,
From some peaceful land,
I’m longing to stand,
A hand in my hand,
… forever I’m dreaming of home,
I feel so alone, I’m dreaming of home.
