Lyrics Eric Clapton

Eric Clapton

For Love On Christmas Day

Wrote myself a letter, I told myself a lie

That you'll be coming home soon and then your name I sigh

I read it every morning since you went away

I'm living in a dream world and dying a little more each day

Wrote myself a love song, believing every word

Saying that you love me in melodies unheard

That you'll be coming back soon, and forever you will stay

I'm living in a dream world and dying a little more each day

Snow is on the sidewalk, it's cold inside my heart

I look up and I wonder, have I lost my guiding star

And everything is white outside, how can it be so dark?

Say a prayer and thank God that your love is mine alone

And never be another who could grace our happy home

Pray on Christmas morning that this time you will stay

But I'm living in a dream world and dying a little more each day

Yes, I'm dying

For love on Christmas day
