First, thanks to everyone who responded the last time. Everyone picked the
song "Please Come Home For Christmas" sung by the Eagles, and sent me
various web sites with the lyrics. I kept trying to sing the song to the
melody, and never really got very far. This morning I found out why.

Originally, I said I heard the beginning of the song on the radio while
scanning, and couldn't find it again. It turns out I heard the beginning of
a Nokia commercial. Today I heard the whole commercial, and here are the
first few lines:

Bells will be ring-ing
Christmas is he-ere
Bells will be ring-ing
All through the yea-ear

and then it quits. If anyone could help me find the song, I'd appreciate
it. It's a great, soft melody that I'm looking forward to singing to my
4-year-old daughter.

The song is on the "Home Alone" Soundtrack (the first one)--not sure who
does it, but if I can find the tape later I'll tell you.

Curiosty killed the cat, but I was a prime suspect.

Sorry Ken, I hate to rain on your parade, but the song you refer to is
actually "Happy Christmas (War is Over)" by John Lennon. See:

Alas, this song has no mention of bells in it that Sal was looking for.

The search continues.

One of my favorites............by Jon Bon Jovi

Please Come Home For Christmas

Bells will be ringing the glad, glad news
Oh what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby's gone (my baby's gone) I have no friends
To wish me greetings once again

Choirs will be singing Silent Night
Those Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas (please come home)
Please come home for Christmas (please come home)
If not for Christmas by New Year's night

Friends and relations send salutations
Just as sure as the stars shine above (yes they do)
This is Christmas, Christmas my dear
The time of year to be with the one that you love

Then won't you tell me, you'll never more roam
Christmas and New Year (Christmas and New Year's)
Will find you at home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief or pain
I'll be happy (happy) that it's Christmas once again.
