[00:05.76] The young gentleman came riding past
[00:08.76] on a snow-blue winter's day
[00:11.39] He asked to drink by our fire and
[00:14.32] I was pleased to let him stay
[00:17.32] He drank there quietly for a while
[00:20.51] and then he turned and said to me
[00:22.64] Your eyes are green
[00:25.07] Like summer grass
[00:28.58] Your lips are red
[00:30.70] like a fresh-cut rose
[00:34.39] Your hair is soft
[00:37.46] like an Irish stream
[00:40.83] And your voice is filled with sweet beauty
[00:46.58] And the last words I heard him say were
[00:52.52] I shall return for you my love on Christmas Day
[01:01.84] And the night will come but I won't sleep
[01:05.09] as I watch the stars that lead him
[01:07.96] I cannot place where he is
[01:10.83] but still my heart goes with him
[01:13.77] I'm saving all my Sunday clothes for the day
[01:17.46] that I'll be leaving
[01:19.59] Father knows
[01:21.96] My sister knows
[01:25.21] And my friends
[01:27.02] They're happy for me
[01:30.90] And the priest he says
[01:33.78] you should thank God
[01:37.03] for the blessing of such beauty
[01:43.09] And the last words I heard him say were
[01:48.53] I shall return for you my love on Christmas Day
[01:57.59] I shall return for you my love on Christmas Day
[02:15.66] On Christmas Day
[02:27.60] I shall return for you
[02:31.42] My love...
[02:49.04] And the last words I heard him say
[02:54.23] Were the last words I ever heard him say
[03:02.80] I shall return for you my love on Christmas Day
[03:09.49] I said I will return on Christmas Day
[03:15.24] And yes, I shall return on Christmas day
[03:21.11] I shall return, for you, on Christmas Day
[03:27.24] My love
[03:28.30] I will return on Christmas Day
[03:33.11] I shall return ,my love, on Christmas Day
[03:43.75] On Christmas Day
