Viewed a UFO through bedroom window on Christmas Eve, as its bright lights woke me up; kept me awake for over an hour as it moved slowly across the Williamson County, TN horizon.

I awoke around 4:00 am on Christmas morning due to a bright light outside my window. I'm a light sleeper, but I was roused from my slumber because I felt like something was "out-of-place." It was a weird intuitive feeling that someone/something was outside peering in. I had the window blinds open and since I'm nearsighted, the bright light was blurry and very large (grapefruit size) through the glass, until I put my glasses on, then as the light came into focus, I could tell that it was something in the sky. I watched it for a bit, but after seeing that the light was stationary, my curiousity prevented me from going back to sleep. The light hovered; it was not a airplane or helicopter. And there were smaller red lights, located around the edges of the white central light, which blinked slowly. As I watched the light through the window on and off for over an hour (I finally got up and got ready for a trip to see family), I noticed that the light moved from window pane to another; meaning that it was slowly moving across the sky. The UFO was hovering above the ground at what I would estimate at several hundred feet (a little higher than a radio or cell tower). My window faces south/southwest so the UFO was hovering above northern Williamson County, TN; I live in southern Davidson County near Brentwood. My apt. is on the 3rd floor atop a good-sized hill, so I have a fantastic view of the horizon through my bedroom window. I'm a 31-year old, well-educated, white male, and I have seen UFOs before, but I've never reported one until now. A UFO that I saw a couple of years ago hovering in urban Nashville was seen by several people and the local newspaper (Tennessean) ran an article, but I did not notice an article regarding this UFO siting. This siting was extremely vivid and I'm convinced that it was "real"; because the image has stuck with me, I've decided to report it to someone that might find the information useful.
