Jamie Cullum Christmas Don't Let Me Down Lyrics

Bring out all the old decorations
Some of them, they're older than us
To my new neighbours, I say salutation
Come shelter in here from the dust
Take your cellphone off of the table
And look your father straight in the eye
Could this stranger become an angel?
Could the winter brighter your sky?

Somebody, hold out their hand
Well, somebody, count off the band
Come on, let's light up the town
And, Christmas, don't let me down

Well, the bars are stuffed to the rafters
And all the children lie awake in their beds
But can ya fill up the houses with laughter? Shall we dance and honour our dead?

Somebody, hold out their hand
Well, somebody, count off the band
Come on, let's light up the town
And, Christmas, don't let me down

Well, another Christmas Eve is upon us
Can we go gentle into that cold, cold night
Well, I know you can't grant all my wishes
Yet I pray for the world to be kind

Now, hold out your hand
Well, somebody, count off the band
Come on, let's light up the town
And, Christmas, don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
