lyrics

hear the call of you to return
of you my lover, from you that i learn
i wait with patience, excited with gleam
for you to come back and realise my dream

was but once when you went away
forever and there you did stay
but heed i never to those who had spoke
that you would never return to the folk

oh low, the light, it lay
oh oh, to show me the way

with candle lit and stars upon
to gaze with thoughts of all the years gone
they seem forever to disappear
until you return it's all that i fear

so i wish, for you to return
you, my lover, the one that i turn
with all my life and hope i give
that you forever with me will live.

oh low, the light, it lay
oh oh, to show me the way
oh low, the light, it lay
oh low, on christmas day
