The Only Gift That I Need

You'll be leaving for the winter But I'll concede that it's true It's the right thing for you But it's tough to be moved with the holiday spirit And to tell you the truth I had big plans for Christmas and high hopes for you I want you here by my side Cold nights and fires and white wine And dreams of holidays to come But I'll wait for spring to bring you to me The only gift that I need I'll be living off your phone calls and your letters and your postcards Every single word is like a secret wish come true Well, who cares if we're apart for the big days It's the small ones that made me fall in love with you I want you here by my side Cold nights and fires and white wine And dreams of holidays to come But I'll wait for spring to bring you to me The only gift that I need The only gift that I need (repeat)
