Deborah Cox – This Gift lyrics

You changed my life
It's really happening
It's like I'm in a dream
Your sacrifice
It made me change my mind
Thought all men
Were just the same
(Just the same)
You made me trust again
Made me feel safe
And loved
You didn't pressure me
Gave me a chance
To open up my heart

I won't be the one
To pull away
Tell me you're the man
That's gunna stay
I know
That this gift can last
Say you'll never leave me
And I'll always be right here

[Chorus:]
This gift
Opened up
My heart to you
This gift
A dream that was built
Just for two
This gift
Is everything I cherished
You want my hand in marriage
Your love
Is the greatest gift of all

This gift
Is everything I couldn't have
This gift
I accept now take my hand
This gift
Showed me how to love thee
This is how it should be
Your love
Is the greatest gift of all

You are the only man
To show me
That love don't hurt
You understand my pain
That's why I need you
Like a flower
That needs the rain

I won't be the one
To pull away
Tell me you're the man
That's gunna stay
I know
That this gift can last
Say you'll never leave me
And I'll always be right here

[Chorus:]

This picture perfect happiness
The answer to our prayers
I'm holding on with no regrets
Cause I'm so blessed
That you gave me

(This gift)
That you gave me this gift
I just wanna thank you
For giving me this gift
(This gift)
Everything I didn't have
(This gift)
I accept now take my hand
Tell me that you love me
This is how it should be
This gift
Is the greatest gift of all
