Christmas Lights lyrics

Christmas Lights

 

 

Christmas night, another fight

Tears we cried a flood

Got all kinds of poison in

Poison in my blood

 

I took my feet

To Oxford Street

Trying to right a wrong

Just walk away

Those windows say

But I can't believe she's gone

 

When you're still waiting for the snow to fall

Doesn't really feel like Christmas at all

 

Up above candles on air flicker

Oh they flicker and they float

But I'm up here holding on

To all those chandeliers of hope

 

Like some drunken Elvis singing

I go singing out of tune

Saying how I always loved you darling

And I always will

 

Oh when you're still waiting for the snow to fall

Doesn't really feel like Christmas at all

 

Still waiting for the snow to fall

It doesn't really feel like Christmas at all

 

Those Christmas lights

Light up the street

Down where the sea and city meet

May all your troubles soon be gone

Oh Christmas lights keep shining on

 

Those Christmas lights

Light up the street

Maybe they'll bring her back to me

Then all my troubles will be gone

Oh Christmas lights keep shining on

 

Oh Christmas lights

Light up the street

Light up the fireworks in me

May all your troubles soon be gone

Oh Christmas lights keep shining on

awesome thanks! the only thing that need to be amended its that the last "Oh" is "Those"...

its on the website already along with all the other lyrics to every song...

I know Chris likes to recycle the same lyric or phrase over and over but I think it is unfortunate that two of the more distinctive lines in Christmas Lights "poison in my blood" and "I always loved you and I always will" were just used in Wedding Bells. Just my two cents.

 

The lyrics from the 60 minutes version were also scrapped.

DON'T RUIN THE MOMENT OF NEW COLDPLAY STUFF OKAY PLEASE

 

IM BACK

the "oooh" bit was also the same one that Chris sang in the version of Wedding Bells he performed at that Apple thingy :wacko:

But Wedding Bells was never released and most likely won't be, so what's the problem with the lyrics? It's not like it hit big on the charts and they're capitalizing on that. They've said they have written way more songs than will be on the album, which doesn't mean all those songs need to be totally different - they choose the "best" ones.

 

It's not uncommon, either, for Coldplay to use the same themes in different songs, ie "feet don't touch the ground."

SUch deep lyrics for a Xmas Song, Coldplay coldplay
