Right from the start, the “Merry Christmas, Darling” track wraps you up in warmth. Dakolo’s soulful style mixes beautifully with Emeli Sandé’s expressive voice, and together they nail that feeling of missing someone at Christmas.
The lyrics sketch out snowy nights and heartfelt wishes; little moments you hold onto when you’re apart from someone you love. The whole thing feels cozy and nostalgic, making love the heart of the holidays.

{Verse}
Greeting cards have all been sent
The Christmas rush is through
But I still have one wish to make
A special one for you
Merry Christmas, darling
We′re apart that's true
But I can dream and in my dreams
I′m Christmassing with you
Holidays are joyful
There's always something new
But every day's a holiday
When I′m near to you
I wish you could see the lights on my tree
I wish it every day
Logs on the fire, fill me with desire
To see you and to say
{Chorus}
That I wish you Merry Christmas
Happy New Year, too
I′ve just one wish on this Christmas eve
I wish I were with you
{Pre-chorus}
The logs on the fire, fill me with desire
To see you and to say
{Chorus}
That I wish you Merry Christmas
Happy New Year, too
I've just one wish on this Christmas eve
I wish I were with you (I wish I were with you)
I wish I were with you
Merry Christmas, darling
