Dido’s I Shall Return for You my Love On Christmas Day Song
Christmas Day by Dido
Thoughts on this day of Christmas can be filled with tremendous joy or for some the deepest of sorrows. In this world today there are those who are still suffering and alone. There are those who have been forsaken and forgotten. There are those who grieve for a love and those who have no home at all. All manners of sadness can be thy companion on this day.
If thy herte lays broken alone in the winter landscape, come to Camelot for today and sit thy weary body by the fire. Let the page bring thee a cup of hot mead. As thou rests, a fellow Knight shall dress thy wounds and bandage thy bleeding herte. Just reste and listen to our Minstrel Dido, sing “Christmas Day” which doth capture the bittersweet emotions that Christmas Day can bring.
I thanketh Biancalady for making this video. Just lovely.
Christmas Day Lyrics by Dido
A 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
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
Reste thy Herte.
Credo ut intelligian – I believe that I may understand
