My Present
by Cody Weathers

You've got my present under ribbon and bow
You won't divulge it, but I think that I know
I heard a rumor --I hope that it's true
Please let my present be you

You try to hide it, but I look high and low
Even the places that you think I don't know
I try to shake it --but I can't get a clue
Please let my present be you
(Guitar)

I heard from Laura; Laura leaks but don't lie
Says I've beguiled you, though she couldn't say why
We've had our chances, but they've all gone askew
Please let my present be you
(Scat)

It's cold at Christmas, man it's crisp in this town
My heart's committed, still it pounds and it pounds
No kiss is riskless --no kiss just a kiss
Please let my present be this bliss

You've got my present under ribbon and bow
You won't divulge it, but I think that I know
I heard a rumor --I hope that it's true
Please let my present be you

Fade:
The only gift we give worth giving
The only thing that keeps me warm is love, love, love
