Dido - Christmas Day lyrics

[Dido - Christmas Day lyrics]

The young gentleman came riding past
On a snow blue winters day
He asked to drink by our fire
And I was pleased to let him stay
He drank there quietly for a while
And then he turned and said to me

Your eyes are green like summer grass
Your lips are red like a fresh cut rose
Your hair is soft like an Irish stream
And your voice is filled with sweet beauty

And the last words I heard him say
Were I shall return for you my love
On Christmas Day

And the night will come but I won't sleep
As I watch the stars that lead him
I cannot place where he is
But still my heart goes with him
I'm saving all my Sunday clothes


For the day that I'll be leaving

Father knows my sister knows
And my friends they're happy for me
And the priest he says you should thank God
For the blessing of such beauty

And the last words I heard him say
Were I shall return for you my love
On Christmas Day
Were I shall return for you my love
On Christmas Day

(On Christmas Day)
(I shall return for you my love)

And the last words I heard him say
Were the last words I ever heard him say

I shall return for you my love
On Christmas Day i swear I will return
On Christmas Day and yes I shall return
On Christmas Day i shall return for you
On Christmas Day my love I will return
On Christmas Day i shall return my love
On Christmas Day on Christmas Day
