C G Em Her parents house stands off a little lane, at the edge of Carlisle C G It was christmas last time I was there C G Her parents liked me then and got me very very drunk G Em On gin and mold wine C G Boxing day morning we woke up in a little spare room Em G The light was dawning, and we went quietly outside C G We walked the dogs, Tina the jack russel and Mammoth the pug Em C Em We took them down to the river, where the cauldew meets the eden C G The sun was shining, the sky was clear Em G And the light dawns between the leaves of the evergreens C G We could go there tomorrow perhaps, in between my inevitable naps Em C Em (G) As long as I, can sit, with you, like that, again C G But what else does tomorrow hold in store Em C Will you take me in or leave me at the door G Em Send me back down the motorway G Em Not that, no way G C Em Down by the river, where the cauldew meets the eden G C Em You took off your shoes and dipped your naked toes into the freezing water G Em C You gasped I held your hand and we stood there for a minute Em G C As the december sun played with your feet G Em Tina and Mammoth just gave you a look G C Em And I helped you put back on your socks and trainers C Em I remember your words exactly G Em The water just looks so clear G C There’s no point in being scared G C Em And you lay your head on my shoulder
