Jim Brickman – The Gift lyrics

Jim Brickman – The Gift lyrics

Winter snow is falling down
Children laughing all around
Lights are turning on
Like a fairy tale come true
Sitting by the fire we made
You're the answer when I prayed
I would find someone
And baby I found you
All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
From being broken apart
You gave your love away
And I'm thankful every day
For the gift
Watching as you softly sleep
What I'd give if I could keep
Just this moment
If only time stood still
But the colors fade away
And the years will make us grey
But baby in my eyes
You'll still be beautiful
All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
From being broken apart
You gave your love away
And I'm thankful every day
For the gift
(Instrumental)
All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
From being broken apart
You gave your love away
I can't find the words to say
That I'm thankful every day
For the gift

I really love this song. This is our wedding song. I can't explain the feeling while I'm walking in the aisle and my friend playing this song using his clarinet. My groom looking at me as if I'm the most beautiful and sexiest woman in the world. Oh my! I'm the happiest girl in the world. This song is so meaningful for me. This is one of the important ingredient why my wedding is successful and my life is so colorful.

Love someone to be there and save there heart giving your love away is something that presious and something when you fall for someone your giving your heart to them becuase to me that's like a comittment ill give you my heart but please take care and never let me go. So when I think of why the song is called the gift is because that's is something I want you to have but this gift means more than anything will ever mean I want you to be mine forever to hold me forever:)

I've herd this song many times and each time I thank god for the special gift that he has provided for me in my wife. I actually prayed even though I was not a christian at the time, that I would find a beautiful christian women to marry and about 1 week later my wife came into my life. This song reminds me of the gift that god has provided for me. Although since I married way above my level, I often some times wonder what it is my wife had done that god is punishing her by putting her with me.

I want this song to be played on my wedding day! I know this song will be perfect for the man I'm gonna marry. I had a long time boyfriend. 8 years. But we broke up and I guess theres no chance of getting back together again. Theres no new man yet but I know one day God will give me my ideal lifetime partner. And if that happens, this song is perfect as a dedication for him, being my catcher and my savior from this heartbreaking love from the wrong time with the wrong man.

"the gift" 4 me it means that theres a day that you wish to the lord that there will be a special boy will come to your life. Then when that day will come. You must take care with that person that the lord give to you. Treat that special person very will, take care of that person as how you treat your love ones, and specially. Love that special person more than your self. ^_^.

This song, is like my love story.
I had already cried since 16th sept 2009, because my ex boyfriend left me, but on 15th sept 2010, God give me Mikhael my unpredictable boy. Mikhael n me have already got close since we were in 1st grade in junior high, but there was something until we can't in a relationship. But, 15th sept 2010, a day before a year I cried for my ex boyfriend, when we're in 1st grade in senior high, Mikhael came to my life and absorbed all my tears, he made me became a cheerful girl again. How great this love story, until I making it into a novel, which title Khelyn University. Although Mikhael had gone now, I still thankful to my God. Khelyn, my love, my hope.
