Promised Return by Christmas (Live Version) - Uncle Dong

Lyrics by：Ji Dong

Composed by：Ji Dong

Promised return by Christmas a beauty so grand

Long hair like a waterfall skin like snow's strand

In her eyes the stars and the sea

A smile that could captivate eternally

Born of nobility yet humble and free

A heart full of dreams longing to be

One summer afternoon in a garden they met

A wanderer tall with a look hard to forget

Travelled far and wide stories he told

Mountains and rivers in her heart they'd unfold

Like a breeze he swept her heart away

To distant shores where dreams hold sway

Promised return by Christmas a beauty so grand

Long hair like a waterfall skin like snow's strand

As time passed their hearts drew near

Under the moon they walked without fear

In gardens they played stars overhead

In each other's company no words unsaid

Time flew by he prepared to roam

Promised return by Christmas to call her home

Her goodbye was filled with hope and dread

Every day she waited with thoughts in her head

Promised return by Christmas a beauty so grand

Long hair like a waterfall skin like snow's strand

Bells chimed Christmas came to be

But no sight of him in the snow so free

In the cold she waited night's embrace

Snowflakes falling sadness traced

She packed her things left the town

Memories heavy she couldn't drown

A letter she left words written clear

Knowing your name voice so near

Promised return by Christmas a beauty so grand

Long hair like a waterfall skin like snow's strand
