This Gift
98 Degrees · This Christmas
You're eyes are shinin', Like diamonds tonight,
And we're all alone, There's no one home.
You're finally in my arms again.
The night is silent and christmas is here.
I couldn't ask for more than havin' you near.
Cuz I love you girl, (Love you girl)
And I always will, (Always will)
And now I know the moment is right,
The moment is right.
'Cuz I've been waiting to give this gift tonight,
I'm down on my knees, there's no better time.
It's something to last for as long as you live,
Tonight I'm gonna give you, (oh girl) all my heart can give.
I thought I'd give you sumthin' shiny and new,
I tried to find somthin' worthy of you,
But I realized, when I looked inside,
There's some things that money can't buy.
(Oh no), I feel the magic, whenever you're near,
I feel it even more this time of the year,
'Cuz I love you girl, (Love you girl)
I always will (Always will)
And now I know the moment is right,
The moment is right.
'Cuz I've been waiting to give this gift tonight (This gift tonight),
I'm down on my knees, there's no better time.
It's something to last for as long as you live,
Tonight I'm gonna give you, all my heart can give.
You know I'll always be true to you,
And you know I'm the one you can turn to,(oh yeah)
Anytime, or anyplace, or anywhere,
You know that I'll always be there oh baby.
'Cuz I've been waiting to give this gift tonight,
I'm down on my knees, there's no better time.
It's something to last for as long as you live,
Tonight I'm gonna give you, all my heart can give.
Waiting to give this gift tonight,
I'm down on my knees, there's no better time.
It's something to last for as long as you live,
Tonight I'm gonna give you, all my heart can give.
