The Gift

Jim Brickman (born November 20, 1961), an American songwriter and pianist who released his first Christmas CD, The Gift with the title song in 1997.

Love is always bestowed as a gift 
- freely, willingly and without expectation. 
We don't love to be loved; we love to love. 


      

THE GIFT
Jim Brickman with Anne Cochran and Tracy Silverman

Winter snow is falling down
Children laughing all around
Lights are turning on 
Like a fairy tale come true

Sitting by the fire we made
You're the answer when I prayed
I would find someone
And baby I found you

All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart from being broken apart
You gave your love away
And I'm thankful every day
For the gift

Watching as you softly sleep
What I'd give if I could keep
Just this moment
If only time stood still

But the colors fade away
And the years will make us grey
But baby in my eyes
You'll still be beautiful

All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart from being broken apart
You gave your love away
(I can't find the words to say)
And I'm thankful every day
For the gift
