The Shed Sessions are simple, live recorded covers of some songs that I love by artists I admire - all from my parents shed!
Well, it's Christmas time! So here is another Christmas cover!
This is a cover of Coldplay's song from 2011, 'Christmas Lights'. I've loved Coldplay's music for many years. I find many of their songs quite emotional and raw, with a simplicity (in the best way) in the writing and delivery; Christmas Lights is one of those songs. It is beautiful, sad, hopeful, and festive.
I hope you enjoy this cover, and have a wonderful Christmas time :)

Lyrics:
Christmas night
Another fight
Tears we cried a flood
Got all kinds of poison in
Of poison in my blood
I took my feet to Oxford street
Trying to right a wrong
"Just walk away" those windows say
But I can't believe you're gone
When you're still waiting for the snow to fall
Doesn't really feel like Christmas at all
Up above candles on air flicker
Oh, they flicker, and they float
And I'm up here holding onto
All those chandeliers of hope
And like some drunken Elvis singing
I go singing out of tune
Singing how I always loved you, darling
And I always will
When you're still waiting for the snow to fall
It doesn't really feel like Christmas at all
Those Christmas lights
Light up the street
Down where the sea and city meet
May all your troubles soon be gone
Oh, Christmas lights keep shining on
Those Christmas lights
Light up the street
Maybe they'll bring you back to me
And then all my troubles will be gone
Oh, Christmas lights keep shining on
Oh Christmas lights
Light up the street
Light up the fire inside of me
May all out troubles soon be gone
Those Christmas lights keep shining on
