The Gift
By Jim Brickman and Tom Douglas
Sung by Olivia Newton-John

Intro:
 -  -  -  -  -  -  - 
		
Verse: 
	       			
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.


Chorus:
          	               
And 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.

(Intro)

		
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.

(Chorus)

Intro (end on D chord)

*Then ending is a little shortened, since there's a piano solo during the end. No big deal.*
