Christmas Day
Dido Armstrong, Rollo Armstrong
A 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"
(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
A young gentleman
Ein junger Herr
Came riding past on a snow blue winter's day
Kam an einem schneeweißen Wintertag vorbeigeritten
He asked to drink by our fire
Er bat um ein Getränk an unserem Feuer
And I was pleased to let him stay
Und ich war erfreut, ihn bleiben zu lassen
He drank there quietly for a while
Er trank dort eine Weile ruhig
And then he turned and said to me
Und dann drehte er sich um und sagte zu mir
Your eyes are green
Deine Augen sind grün
Like summer grass
Wie Sommergras
Your lips are red
Deine Lippen sind rot
Like a fresh cut rose
Wie eine frisch geschnittene Rose
Your hair is soft
Dein Haar ist weich
Like an Irish stream
Wie ein irischer Bach
And your voice
Und deine Stimme
Is filled with sweet beauty
Ist erfüllt von süßer Schönheit
And the last words I heard him say
Und die letzten Worte, die ich ihn sagen hörte
Were "I shall return
Waren „Ich werde zurückkehren
For you, my love
Für dich, meine Liebe
On Christmas Day"
Am Weihnachtstag“
And the night will come
Und die Nacht wird kommen
But I won't sleep
Aber ich werde nicht schlafen
As I watch the stars that lead him
Während ich die Sterne beobachte, die ihn führen
I cannot place where he is
Ich kann nicht sagen, wo er ist
But still my heart goes with him
Aber trotzdem geht mein Herz mit ihm
I'm saving all my Sunday clothes
Ich spare all meine Sonntagskleidung
For the day that I'll be leaving
Für den Tag, an dem ich gehen werde
Father knows
Vater weiß es
My sister knows
Meine Schwester weiß es
And my friends
Und meine Freunde
They're happy for me
Sie freuen sich für mich
And the priest he says
Und der Priester sagt
You should thank God
Du solltest Gott danken
For the blessing
Für den Segen
Of such beauty
Solcher Schönheit
And the last words
Und die letzten Worte
I heard him say
Die ich ihn sagen hörte
Were "I shall return

For you, my love
Für dich, meine Liebe
On Christmas Day"
Am Weihnachtstag“
"I shall return
„Ich werde zurückkehren
For you, my love
Für dich, meine Liebe
On Christmas Day"
Am Weihnachtstag“
(I shall return for you my love)
(Ich werde für dich zurückkehren, meine Liebe)
And the last words
Und die letzten Worte
I heard him say
Die ich ihn sagen hörte
Were the last words
Waren die letzten Worte
I ever
Die ich jemals
Heard him say
Von ihm hörte
I shall return
Ich werde zurückkehren
For you, my love
Für dich, meine Liebe
On Christmas Day
Am Weihnachtstag
I swear
