[Verse 1: Kate Rusby]
This beautiful place has been calling
And the light shines through
Snow is constantly falling
Saying I love you

[Chorus: Kate Rusby & Mary Chapin Carpenter]
Rest your head, my old friend here
Lightly tread, my old friend here
And the bells ring for Christmas
And I love you

[Verse 2: Kate Rusby]
A graceful tide goes before her
And the light shines through
The stars above they adore her
Saying I love you

[Chorus: Kate Rusby, Mary Chapin Carpenter & Jim Causley]
Rest your head, my old friend here
Lightly tread, my old friend here
And the bells ring for Christmas
And I lovе you

[Accordion Solo]
[Verse 3: Kate Rusby, Kate Rusby & Jim Causley]
Will you declare that you love hеr
When the light shines through?
As angels watching above her
Singing I love you

[Chorus: Kate Rusby, Mary Chapin Carpenter & Jim Causley]
Rest your head, my old friend here
Lightly tread, my old friend here
And the bells ring for Christmas
And I love you
