The Gift

I have a gift, especially for you A box full of dreams I hope they come true All ribbons and bows I wrapped it myself Sealed with a promise made to you and no one else And still it sits there On the pillow of my bed Some nights I wish that you were lying there instead I hear you whisper Over and over in my head Ooh baby you saved me This gift of yours has changed me And I don't think I'll ever be the same Cause up till now I couldn't find Someone who gave me this peace of mind I have a gift or so I've been told Of selling myself short and never grabbing hold Life's opportunities just pass me by Slipping through my grasp in the blink of an eye And now it seems, I finally get to dance I've turned it over and now I want my chance I hear you whisper Over and over and over Ooh baby, you saved me This gift of yours has changed me And I don't think I'll ever be the same Cause up till now I couldn't find Someone who gave me this peace of mind I can be obsessive Yeah I can be possessive I know it's only human But still I can't excuse them Ooh baby you saved me This gift of yours has changed me And I don't think I'll ever be the same Oh no Ooh baby you saved me This gift of yours has changed me And I don't think I'll ever be the same Oh no Cause up till now I could never find Someone who gave me This peace of mind I hear you whisper Over and over and over
