Christmas Lights Lyrics

Cover art for Christmas Lights lyrics by Coldplay

I feel that this may be a continuation of the story that Chris Martin describes at the Apple keynote sppec as he sang Wedding Bells. He alludes to that performance a few times during this song, taking the lyrics, "All kinds of poison in my blood" from Wedding Bells.

He goes on to sing, "I go singing out of tune Saying how I always loved you, darling And I always will." Again, an allusion to the Apple keynote performance where he sang the lines "I always loved you and I always will" in the song Wedding Bells. During the performance at Apple his voice broke several times while singing, which is possible where the "I go singing out of tune" line comes from.

Whether this is a continuation of the story he described Wedding Bells as the beginning of or not, it's a great song with an amazing video!
