Dido Miscellaneous Christmas Day The young gentleman came riding past / on a snow-blue winter's 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 / 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 said 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 |
