[00:05.87] The young gentleman came riding past on a snow-blue winter's day
[00:11.90] He asked to drink by our fire and I was pleased to let him stay
[00:17.83] He drank there quietly for a while and then he turned and said to me
[00:23.14] Your eyes are green like summer grass
[00:29.04] Your lips are red like a fresh-cut rose
[00:34.86] Your hair is soft like an Irish stream
[00:41.02] And your voice is filled with sweet beauty
[00:47.13] And the last words I heard him say were
[00:52.78] I shall return for you my love on Christmas Day
[01:01.95] And the night will come but I won't sleep as I watch the stars that lead him
[01:08.25] I cannot place where he is but still my heart goes with him
[01:14.26] I'm saving all my Sunday clothes for the day that I'll be leaving
[01:19.78] Father knows, my sister knows
[01:25.64] And my friends they're happy for me
[01:31.32] And the priest he says 'You should thank God for the blessing of such beauty'
[01:43.56] And the last words I heard him say were
[01:48.98] I shall return for you my love on Christmas Day
[01:57.97] 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
[02:48.90] 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
[03:09.89] 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, my love
[03:28.30] I will return on Christmas Day
[03:33.11] I shall return, my love, on Christmas Day
[03:44.00] On Christmas Day
