This official lyric video features Linda Ronstadt’s performance of "I'll Be Home for Christmas," showcasing the eleven-time Grammy Award-winning vocalist's expressive phrasing on one of the most beloved holiday standards in American popular music.

Composed by Walter Kent with lyrics by Kim Gannon and Buck Ram, the World War II-era ballad was originally recorded by Bing Crosby in 1943, becoming a classic anthem of longing for deployed troops and far-flung families. Ronstadt’s definitive studio interpretation was recorded for her 2000 holiday album, A Merry Little Christmas, released on Elektra Records. Co-produced by John Boylan and acclaimed audio engineer George Massenburg, the track features sweeping orchestral arrangements by veteran conductor Peter Matz, framing Ronstadt’s rich vocal delivery with timeless, mid-century pop warmth.

A Merry Little Christmas represented a significant career milestone, serving as Ronstadt's final studio album under her 27-year recording contract with Elektra/Asylum Records. The album capped a remarkably versatile era following her legendary 1970s country-rock and pop heights (Heart Like a Wheel, Simple Dreams) and her genre-defying 1980s and 1990s projects, which included big band traditional pop collaborations with Nelson Riddle (What's New), mariachi landmarks (Canciones de Mi Padre), and acclaimed roots-music collaborations like Trio with Dolly Parton and Emmylou Harris. On A Merry Little Christmas, Ronstadt brought that same stylistic depth to seasonal material, combining traditional carols, Latin sacred pieces, contemporary covers like Joni Mitchell's "River," and a notable duet with traditional pop icon Rosemary Clooney on "White Christmas".

I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams

I'm dreaming tonight of a place I know
Even more than I usually do
And though I know it's a long road back
I promise you

I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
If only in my dreams
