All I Can Give You

Boxes and bows full of ribbons and clothes,
 set up neatly beneath the tree
 With a tag on each one saying Santa has come,
 but where are the ones from me?
 Oh, how I wanted the lights in your eyes to be mine
 I wanted the look on your face
 All I can give is this Christmas song to you
 I just hope that you'll sing it
 Wherever your heart skips a beat when you're thinking of me
 And if the greetings this season will bring leave you searching for meaning
 you will look to the words I have written and you'll be set free
 You have to know that I can't let you down
 It's you and me vs the rest of this town
 And when the lights go out I'll still be around to put a bow on some sounds
 That's all I can give you this Christmas
 And I know that to you it's just jewelry and shoes
 But to me, they're the smile on your face
 Cause baby you've been the glue and the nails and screws
 that have managed to keep me in place
 So I wanted a gift for my lady in white
 but all I could bring you tonight...
 All I can give is this Christmas song to you
 I just hope that you'll sing it
 Whenever your heart skips a beat while you're thinking of me
 And if the greetings this season will bring leave you searching for meaning
 You will look the words I have written
 and you'll be set free
 You have to know that I can't let you down
 It's you and me vs the rest of this town
 And when the lights go out I'll still be around to put a bow on some sounds
 (but that's all I can give you...)
 And I'm hoping that a melody will let you know
 that I'm waiting for a Christmas kiss with mistletoe
 Cause baby that's all I can give is this Christmas song to you
 I just hope that you'll sing it
 Whenever your heart skips a beat when you're thinking of me
 And the greeting this season will bring leave you searching for meaning
 You'll look to the words I have written and you'll be set free
 You have to know that I can't let you down
 It's you and me vs the rest of this town
 And when the lights go out
 I'll still be around to put a bow on some sounds
 But that's all I can give you this Christmas
