  • Winter days, turn to grey, put the headlights on
    Snow and rain, wiped away, I can't keep my eyes on the road
    When I'm driving home, I got tears, running down
    Burning in my eyes and you and I, heated by the flicker of a light and it glow
    And I let it go

    But I just got here
    I know it's been a while darling, dear
    There's been a change in the time of year
    When the frost bites the snow
    And Christmas comes around

    For the down and outs
    And broken lay-abouts
    What will they do now?
    When Christmas comes around
    We were so in love
    Till I messed it up
    But who will love me now?
    When Christmas comes around

    Family asking me, why I let you go
    Telling me, it's a mistake
    I'm telling them that I know
    But I can't call you
    Your inner space, better place
    Loving on a new man
    I don't blame you at all
    You did all that you can, I know

    But I just got here
    I know it's been a while darling, dear
    There's been a change in the time of year
    When the frost bites the snow
    And Christmas comes around

    For the down and outs
    And broken lay-abouts
    What will they do now?
    When Christmas comes around
    We were so in love
    Till I messed it up
    But who will love me now?
    When Christmas comes around

    And I'm sick of all the songs
    The Christmas sing-alongs
    The merry and the cheer
    'Cause I don't feel like that this year
    All the bells are all in sync
    And my soul is on the brink
    So I'll have myself a drink
    And sing
    When Christmas comes around

    For the down and outs
    And broken lay-abouts
    What will they do now?
    When Christmas comes around
    We were so in love
    Till I messed it up
    But who will love me now?
    When Christmas comes around

    Who will love me now, when Christmas comes around? Writer/s: Amy Wadge, ED SHEERAN, Edward Christopher Sheeran
