The Gesture Lyrics

Christmas mornin' in my flannel and fleece

The world feels quiet like a moment of peace

Then there's a knock and I'm caught by surprise

It's Sam at the door with that light in his eyes

Oh he's got cookies in his hands mistletoe above

His smile's full of promise his niece giggles with love

"Merry Christmas" he says "Wanna take a little walk?"

And I'm wrapped in his warmth before we even talk

The snow's fallin' soft as we step through the street

Our laughter mingles like the cold and the heat

Shy little glances hearts beatin' in time

And the chill of December feels almost divine

Oh he's got cookies in his hands mistletoe above

His smile's full of promise his niece giggles with love

"Merry Christmas" he says "Wanna take a little walk?"

And I'm wrapped in his warmth before we even talk

Every step feels lighter with him by my side

Like the snow's not just fallin' but liftin' my pride

We don't need the words the silence is sweet

With every shy glance the moment's complete

Oh he's got cookies in his hands mistletoe above

His smile's full of promise his niece giggles with love

"Merry Christmas" he says "Wanna take a little walk?"

And I'm wrapped in his warmth before we even talk

The world's still and snowy but my heart's aglow

This walk feels like somethin' I've been waitin' to know

Under the Christmas sky his laughter's my cheer

And I'm thinkin' this might be the start of my year
