I Got You A Gift Lyrics

It's the night before Christmas so I got you a gift

I thought if I didn't you'd wonder where it is

Just a little something the overnight guy at the drugstore picked

But I bought it and brought it so you might as well open it

It doesn't measure up to what I gave you when we met

When I wrapped it and signed it to make sure you knew what I meant

Every day after that I told I'd give you everything I had to give

And I guess in a way tonight I still did

Christmas Eve, we lit candles as we listened to the choir

But they all burned down and we found we had run out of fire

Then you'd go to your party saying I had to work

And I'd say at mine you were sick

Keeping each other's secrets is the last gift we give

It's the night before Christmas so I got you a gift

I thought if I didn't you'd wonder where it is

Just a little something the overnight guy at the drugstore picked

But I bought it and brought it so you might as well open it
