"CELEBRATE ME HOME" LYRICS:
Home for the holidays,
I believe I've missed each and every face,
Come on and play my music,
Let's turn on the love light in the place

It's time I found myself,
Totally surrounded in your circles
Whoa, my friends

Please, celebrate me home,
Give me a number,
Please, celebrate me home
Play me one more song,
That I'll always remember,
And I can recall,
Whenever I find myself too all alone,
I can sing me home.

Uneasy highway,
Traveling where the Westerly winds can fly,
Somebody tried to tell me,
But the men forgot to tell me why,

I gotta count on being gone,
Come on woman, come on daddy,
Be what you want from me,
I'm this strong, I'll be weak

Please, celebrate me home,
Give me a number,
Please, celebrate me home
Play me one more song,
That I'll always remember,
I can recall,
Whenever I find myself too all alone,
I can make believe I've never gone,
I never know where I belong,
Sing me home.

Please, celebrate me home,
Give me a number,
Please, celebrate me home
Play me one more song,

Celebrate, celebrate
Celebrate, celebrate
Celebrate, celebrate
Celebrate me home

Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Well I'm finally here,
But I'm bound to roam,
Come on celebrate me home
Well I'm finally here,
But I'm bound to roam,
Come on celebrate me home
Well I'm finally here,
But I'm bound to roam,
Come on celebrate me home
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home,
Please, celebrate me home.

I love Kenny! This song makes me cry every time! So emotional!

[paulinechapman]

Am in tears ..no no ..Kenny cannot be this old..but still beautiful..but the reminder that I’m old too is painful..and now he’s retiring..no end to life’s cruelty..Kenny and his music lives on in my heart..🇨🇦

[AndrewOkus]

If I can only play piano for Kenny in Heaven as we praise Our Loving God that's all I'm looking forward to.❤

[NYRocker]

I’m a lifelong Kenny Loggins fan. I’ve seen him live about 35 times, and it was always perfection. He has the voice of an angel❤

[AlanStransman]

Loggins is a monster talent....wrote House at Pooh Corner as a high school student....what more is there to

[rkthomas]

There are some who are a cut above. Kenny Loggins' live performances are proof of his range and completely unscripted style never ceases to amaze me.

[NoNameNoFace-rrli]

when you realize there is more behind you than in front of you this song has even more meaning.

[sharonhendrix]

Masterpiece. Thank you Mr. Loggins and musicians. Absolute perfection.🙏🏽

[taccamine]

He steps behind the band when they're soloing, not to stand in the way of their attention. Nothing is more admirable than a humble legend

[elenacaddell]

Lost my brother this past December. On my way home. This song came to my mind. Hadn’t heard it in so so long it’s very fitting. Thank you.💓

[lynzimoore]

been with Kenny from the very beginning and i really prefer this version--what a guy!!!

[lifecoachmalachi]

Bro, Kenny took ya’ll to church for real! Come on now!

[richardstones]

It is beautiful how Kenny loves to hear his audiences sing his songs back to him.

[michaelmacdonald]

Incredible! His voice is amazingly still strong and he was hitting all the highest notes. My favourite musician of all time. Saw him live in 2018 at Niagara Falls, Canada, then has the good fortune to meet him backstage. Consumate gentlemen. One of the highlights of my life. Keep rocking Kenny!

[martinbaggott]

Just a marvelous marvelous man. My whole family are lifelong fans. My daughters now in their 40s have seen him so many times, since they were like 10. To this day whenever they go to a concert they measure it against Kenny’s. Love you Kenny.

[lisarandall]

The depths of this song only sung by you, is out of this world, thankyou!

[pennycoyote]

...ahhhh Kenny, I ❤️ you soooo
an
I'm glad to see that you allowed your silver and gray to grow out. It helps to enhance your distinguished elder gentleman looks 😊

[elizabethdunn]

I’ve seen Kenny in concert countless times since the 1970’s. This arrangement and performance sounds as great as ever. What an amazing voice! Shout out to the great Scott Bernard.

[michaelmitchell]

So emotional--played song at my husbands memorial. He loved the song.

[carrieoconnor]

Just beautiful Kenny take me to church balling my eyes out out
