lyrics

And on this wintry eve the air is warm
Outside dad leaning on his horn
But all I hear is the beating of my heart
As the world slowly falls apart

All my life I’ve waited patiently
For God to give to me my due
But now my beating heart is telling me
That long ago he gave it all to you

The gift with my name under the tree
It’s not for me
The gifts with my name under the tree
They’re all for me
To give to you

So I hope the snow will stick around
And cover all the gifts strewn across the ground
And the one wrapped in my broken heart
While the world slowly falls apart

The gift with my name under the tree
It’s not for me
I’m hanging by a thread to the gift with my name
My very life depends on the gift with my name
Wrapped in my heart
Under the tree

So now I hope the snow will stick around
And help to soften that blaring sound
Of the angels blowing on their horns celebrating your birth
And now they’re singing with me
the song I’ve been singing all my life

The gift with my name under the tree
It’s not for me
The gifts with my name under the tree
They’re not for me
The gifts with my name under the tree
They’re all for me
To give to you
