You'll be leavin for the winter
but I'll concede that its true
Its the right thing for you
but its tough to be moved with the holiday spirit
And to tell you the truth
I had big plans for Christmas and high hopes for you
I want you here by my side
Cold nights and fires and white wine
And dreams of holidays to come
But Ill wait for spring to bring you to me
The only gift that I need
Ill be living off your phone calls and your letters and your postcards
Every single word is like a secret wish come true
Well, who cares if were apart for the big days
Its the small ones that made me fall in love with you
I want you here by my side
Cold nights and fires and white wine
And dreams of holidays to come
But Ill wait for spring to bring you to me
The only gift that I need
The only gift that I need (repeat)
