You're a Gift

[Intro: Aimee Mann]

There's no bright star leading

Where you are, so I'm singing for you

[Verse 1: Aimee Mann]

The snow's coming down and it muffles the sound

Of the cars going by in the night

A change in the street as it covers concrete

Like a blanket of magic and light

[Pre-Chorus: Aimee Mann & Ted Leo]

And the lights on the tree

They're blinking at me

Going red, going green, going blue

I get plenty of cheer

But I'm faking it, dear

'Cause a light's just a light with you

[Chorus: Aimee Mann & Ted Leo]

Merry Christmas

You're a gift and you're all that I wanted

You're a gift from the moment we met

And if Christmas I wake up and see you

You're my gift and I'll never forgеt

[Bridge: Aimee Mann and Ted Leo, Both]

They everyonе have their love

Have their fun

And they, they carry it through

But those who know, know when

Let someone go

It doesn't let go of you

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2: Aimee Mann & Ted Leo]

The snow's coming down

And it muffles the sound

Of the jets flying high in the sky

And if from below

All the clouds are aglow

As the [?] brings a tear to my eye

[Pre-Chorus: Aimee Mann & Ted Leo]

And I wonder, my dear

If up there you can hear

As I sing to myself on the ground

All my hopes for the year and how I want you near

Oh it's Christmas, so please come around

Won't you come 'round?

[Chorus: Aimee Mann & Ted Leo]

Merry Christmas

You're a gift and you're all that I wanted

You're a gift from the moment we met

And if Christmas I wake up and see you

You're my gift and I'll never forget

Merry Christmas, it's all that I wanted

It's a gift from the moment we met

And if Christmas I wake up and see you

You're my gift and I'll never forget

I won't forget
